In math, we worked on rounding numbers to the nearest ten and hundred. Students also improved their math communication skills using an iPad app called "Explain Everything." Using the app, students narrated how they solved an addition problem.
In reading, we read more texts related to the theme of home. In addition, we practiced writing summaries for books. Using the "Someone-Wanted-But-So-Then" organizer, students wrote succinct summaries.
In writing, students are adding details to their personal narratives. This week, we learned strategies for writing effective leads that "hook" our audience's interest.
In word study, we learned about 1-1-1 words. These words contain one syllable, one vowel, and one consonant after the vowel.
In social studies, students have been preparing for their mural projects by researching about the seasonal life of the Wampanoags. Please see the email notice sent out earlier in the week for more information on this project.
