In Writing, we are wrapping up our realistic fiction stories! The kids are in the middle of typing up their final drafts. We didn't get them done for Spotlight Night, but will have them done by Tuesday morning at the absolute latest!
In Reading, we are still in our book clubs. The kids met with their groups to discuss the book. Then completed a response question and/or vocabulary words for chapters 7 - 9. We will continue book clubs next week. I will be grading the book club chapter responses (chapters 7 - 10) next Tuesday.
In Math, we will start a very short unit on math algorithms (addition, subtraction and multiplication) on Monday. We will also review various math skills we've learned this year using a variety of games and activities the next couple of weeks. There is no test for this unit.
In Science, we have started our next unit: Exploring Force, Work and Gravity. This is a fun unit as it has tons of experiments! This unit will take about 2 weeks to complete. We will have our test on this Wednesday. Then, we will have one last short science unit on the solar system.
In Social Studies, we spent some time with our Kinder Buddies!
Read Aloud Time, we are reading a new Bluebonnet Book called Woof.
