Language
Arts: In our reading, we are learning to take charge of our own
comprehension. We are also continuing our writing work on small moments
and narratives. We are also working on
envisioning scenes from our reading and trying to write in a way that allows
our readers to envision our writing. We
also started reading “Stone Fox” as a class and we are enjoying it!
Social
Studies: We just completed our first unit on social scientists. We
will re-visit social studies soon!
Science: We
love our tower garden!!! All of our seedlings are all in and we are
excited to watch them grow in the tower garden over the next few weeks. Mint was transplanted from soil to our garden
and we are watching it carefully as it makes the transition to the aeroponic gardening. We share this garden with other classes who
will put the finishing touches on it this week! We are having the best
time learning what successful scientists do!
***Often
we post things on our class SeeSaw accounts as well on our Google Classroom
accounts. Ask your child to show you what he/she has done so far!
