A Peek At The Week
-In reading we are continuing to direct instruction at students’ reading levels.
-In Math we are continuing with place value. Students will begin looking at 2-digit numbers as an addition sentence that combine 10’s and 1’s. We will also look at 10 more, 10 less, 1 more, and 1 less. Students will get to compare dimes and pennies to 10’s and 1’s.
-Writing time this week will continue with non-fiction writing. Students will be given the opportunity to interview a peer and write about that friend! This is always a favorite writing activity
-Our Core Knowledge time will continue with our Social Studies unit on Early Exploration and Settlement.
