1. Wilson’s and Sullivan’s Scoop August 22 - 26
What I’m Learning:
This week our mentor text is the poem “Seal” and “Cherries and Cherry Pits”. In Reading, we are visualizing, rereading to gain more details, making text-to-self connections, and inferencing. In grammar, we are exploring nouns and verbs. In writing, we are building our writing community. In math, we will begin rounding to the 10’s and the 100’s.
