Election

This week in:

Shared Reading/Concepts-We will learn what an election is, what candidates are, and what is the presidents job. We will discuss the qualities we would like for our president to have and read the books Grace for President, Duck for President, and My Teacher for President. We will discuss the qualities of each candidate, register to vote, and cast our ballets on Monday in our class election booth. We will let you know who won our class election!

Daily 5 Reading-We are working on the goal of fluency by focusing on the strategy of rereading text. Students reread a selection of text several times until they can read it smoothly, accurately, and with expression. Children benefit from this rereading because of the ease with which it can be implemented in the classroom. Students can reread by themselves or with a partner and with any good fit books they are reading.

Guided Math-We are working on addition strategies and fluency with our addition facts.

Writer's Workshop-We are continuing to work on learning how to write personal narrative and becoming independent writers.
