In Math Workshop, we applied our knowledge of patterns and rules to help us determine missing numbers in "In/ Out" tables. Students have homework coming home tonight, due tomorrow. Remember, if your child gets stuck, remind them that they have a resource to help them (their math notebook).
In Writers' Workshop, we continued to revise, edit, and begin publishing our personal narratives.
In Readers' Workshop, students learned another way readers learn about characters is by paying attention to how they respond to problems. Today, we worked on identifying problems within texts. Tomorrow, we will begin analyzing how characters respond to these problems and begin inferring and growing ideas about them.
In Word Study, students closely studied a list of words to help them recognize any patterns. They payed attention to letter patterns as well as sounds to determine how to spell words with long vowel sounds in them. We then applied this knowledge to our learning about syllables and vowels.
In Social Studies, students began working on their projects which are intended to represent their learning and thinking about key democratic ideas. I'll be sure to share these on the blog when they are complete. Ask your student tonight how they're presenting their learning.
Homework:
- Math homework due tomorrow

Classroom Supplies:
- Sticky Notes: Sticky notes are used every day in every subject area to ensure comprehension, foster critical thinking, and display progress. As such, we run out rather quickly. The kids and I would so appreciate any sticky note donations. Your generosity is greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Ms. Smith
