Tissues...

In Math Workshop, students learned used expanded notation and place value to write one problem many different ways.

In Writers' Workshop, students identified "time transitions" to help them make edits regarding new paragraphs.  Students first practiced this editing strategy while reading a peers' fairy tale, with their literacy partner (see below).  Then, students went back to their own writing and edited.  Fairy tales should be published (typed up) by Friday.  I will send home essays with feedback next week.








In Readers' Workshop, students closely read a folktale and used inferences to engage in accountable talk.

In Science, students identified parts of fruits to help them explore its functions.  Students will have a quiz on the functions of each part of the plant tomorrow.

Homework: 
  • Math homework due tomorrow
  • Multiplication/ division facts 0-12: 10-20 minutes
  • Read: 20 minutes
Reminders:
  • Early Dismissal: Friday, May 22.
  • No school: Monday, May 25.
  • Missing classroom books: 
    • Exclamation Mark 
    • My Life As A Stunt Boy
Classroom Supplies:  We are completely out of tissues, due to allergy season.  If you could consider sending in a box or two, the kids would really appreciate it.  Thank you!
  • Tissues
  • Dry erase markers


Thank you,

Ms. Smith
