Reindeer!
This week in:
Shared Reading/Concepts-We will discuss genre and do a non-fiction study on reindeer. The boys and girls will learn all about reindeer. We will discuss fact and opinion. On Friday we will have reindeer day! We will dress up as reindeer and play reindeer games!
Daily 5 Reading- We will work on our goal of fluency by focusing on the strategy of becoming a voracious reader. Readers increase their vocabulary by reading, reading, and reading. the number of words in your meaning vocabulary store is directly related to how much you read. children who read the most have the biggest vocabularies.
Daily 5 Math-We are continuing our study of operations and algebraic thinking by continuing to work on our addition strategies and fluency.
Writer's Workshop-We will be writing reindeer facts and labeling reindeer.
Reminders:
*No walking school bus this week due to my early morning duty.
