Math- This week the students will be learning about some fun strategies to solve double digit addition problems. These strategies include things like 100's chart, place value, open number line, and base ten blocks. The strategies taught will help the students to understand math on a conceptual level which will make them deeper, strategic thinkers.
Reading- During shared reading and guided reading times, the students will be focusing on the 5 W's of a fiction text (who, what, where, when, why, how) as well as text features of a non-fiction book.
Writing- Writing time this week will be dedicated to teaching the students how to answer constructed response questions. They will use the skills they learn to answer a questions about a non-fiction reading passage, while finding specific details in the passage to support their answer. This is a great skill for them to learn as they will be tested on it for years to come.
Social Studies- Mary Musgrove is the famous person of the week! The students will read, take notes, and tell stories all about Musgrove. By Friday, they will have enough knowledge to take a test on her which will focus on her contributions to Georgia as well as her character traits.
