We work hard everyday to become better readers and writers through the Daily 5. We have been learning about different writings. We have been writing friendly letters. We wrote a friendly letter to Miss McNeill and she even responded back! We are starting to write our own personal narratives. We are busy readers and writers!

Math

We have been working hard on our facts. We are learning new facts every week! We practice them everyday. We like to play Around the World and our Making 10,11 and 12 card game. We just began our 100 addition fact timed tests. We also started learning our subtraction facts.

We are beginning our unit on habitats in Science/Social Studies. There are many fun things planned for this unit. We started by brainstorming different habitats we already knew about. We discussed what four important things a habitat needs (water, food, shelter, space). We drew and labeled our own habitat. We will be researching and learning about different habitats and animals. We will also be writing our own animal research reports! I will be posting different pictures of projects as we complete them.
Our virtues for the month are:
