MATH: Tuesday and Thursday of this week.
Language Arts: We are working on organizing our classroom library! We’ll be sorting books by topics and authors. We’re going to continue to study the authors Mercer Mayer and Tomie DePaola. We will learn about contractions, such as I’m, I’ll, can’t, and it’s. In writing, we’ll continue to work with our dictionaries as we write narratives about our families.
Math: We’re beginning Topic 4, which focuses on addition and subtraction facts to 12.
