We have a very busy 2 weeks leading up to our break! But fun things have been going on in room 305!
Writing- Students have been working hard on researching a famous scientist or inventor. They are wrapping up their presentations and sharing over the next few days. They have done a GREAT job. They really enjoy getting to share with their classmates what they learned about their topic. We will begin our 2nd quarter writing prompt on Tuesday and work on it over the rest of the week. Reading- We are wrapping up the quarter in reading, too. We will be reviewing main idea, theme, and author's purpose this week and will take the 2nd quarter reading assessment at the beginning of next week. Math- we have been working on telling time to the nearest minute and I am SUPER impressed with how fast your little smarties caught on. We will review this over the next week and will continue working on elapsed time! Science- Measuring properties of matter. We have been talking about how to measure the different types of matter and what tools to use. This week, students will get a chance to try out some of those tools!! :) Other Announcements: *We have so many opportunities to give this holiday season. As a class, we have been talking about Christmas being a time to give to others.
