Snow MUCH Fun! (Week of 1-9-17)


I hope that each of you had an amazing break spending time with your loved ones and relaxing! We are back in the swing of things and will finish the year strong! My favorite part of the school year is January-May! This is when students usually make the most growth and their "light bulbs" really turn on! Here is a peek at our week!

Monday: Today we welcomed the 2 hour delay! :) We read a non-fiction book about snow and answered comprehension questions! 

Tuesday: We read a fiction book about snow and practiced RAP when answering our comprehension question. (RAP) restate the question, answer the question, prove it! 

Wednesday: Today we reviewed balancing equations. This is a tough concept for the kiddos! Please practice at home! Here is a sample problem: 4 + 3 = ___ +2

Thursday: Today we reviewed graphing by making a class graph and answering questions about it. We also read a story called: Snowball Trouble and answered comprehension questions independently! 

Friday: Today we had an assembly and received our "One School, One Book" book: Charlotte's Web! We celebrated our hard work this week by enjoying some chips and juice!

Please note: Homework for the next two weeks will be to work on your Arctic Animals project. The kids need to complete an informational writing on their animal. If you choose, you may also create a poster telling about your animal! Thank you so much for your help with this!
