Have a nice, long weekend!

There is no school Friday, April 3rd and Monday, April 6th.  Have a wonderful weekend!

During Reader's Workshop we learned that...
  • Readers think about the whole book and what makes sense when they are reading.
  • Readers think about the topic of the books and make predictions.
  • When a reader gets to a word he/she doesn't know, he/she asks what makes sense? Check the pictures and the letter sounds.
During Writer's Workshop we learned that...
  • Writers write All About a topic that they are VERY familiar with.
  • Writers list all that they know about the topic.
  • Writers create chapters for their book.
  • Writers label their pictures to give more information.
Math:  We finished up our unit on 2-D and 3-D shapes and practiced combining numbers up to 10.  

REMINDERS:
There is no school tomorrow - Friday, April 3rd. and Monday, April 6th.  Enjoy the long weekend!
