Week 4


What’s Up?

  • In math we are learning to survey others and sort objects into categories in order to collect and organize data. We will continue to hone our addition and subtraction skills within 10.

  • Our Language Arts skills block will focus on the digraphs ck and wh as well as the high frequency words first, friend, and half.

  • In reading we will continue to unearth our mission to create something magnificent for our classroom through various challenges including tower building, jumping rope, juggling, and reflecting on habits of character. Literature to support our work includes: My Math Toolbox, by Nancy Kelley Allen; I Use Science Tools by Kellie Hicks; Tools by Ann Morris; The Little Red Pen by Janet and Susan Stevens; A Chef’s Tools by Holden Strauss; Building our House by Jonathan Bean; Rosie Revere Engineer by Andrea Beaty; Brick by Brick by Charles R. Smith; and Chopsticks by Amy Krouse Rosenthal.
