Today was our student teacher Ms. Stanizzi's last day with us. We valued her time in our classroom and wish her the best of luck in the future! ☺
Below is an overview of what we worked on in school this week...
In social studies, we wrapped up our unit on the Wampanoag tribe. Students made flipbooks to record facts that they had learned about the characteristics of Wampanoag life in the seventeenth century.
In writing, students put the finishing touches on their personal narrative stories. This week, we also began a unit on informational writing. We discussed the characteristics of the informational genre and began brainstorming topics.
In reading, we began guided reading groups for realistic fiction books. We made inferences about what characters were feeling based upon their words in the text. We wrote readers' responses incorporating textual evidence.
In math, we began memorizing our multiplication times tables. We are practicing different ways to learn our multiplication facts, like using flashcards, writing lists of multiples, playing games, quizzing each other, and using online programs. One website that we have used for studying our facts is Quizlet. Check it out below!
