Week of April 28, 2014

Students worked on telling time to the hour and half hour on the ipad.

They also played Fishy Addition and worked in their math binders.

Some students played two different 100 number chart games on ABCYA.
In math, we have started a new Check Your Work chart.  We will have another math celebration when we reach our goal.

We learned the app Wings today.  It requires students to move the ipad around to fly their bird into the correct answer.  The app becomes more challenging as you continue to play it.  This will be a choice during Math Menu next week.

In Word study, we have been working on spelling two syllable words.  This includes compound words. We have been using the strategy of clapping to help us identify the syllables.  Our Word Wall words were make and more.

We have started a new writing unit that focuses on realistic fiction.  We read Henry and Mudge as an example of realistic fiction.  This means it is a story that you made up but it could happen in real life.  We have been filling out our planning sheets that focus on identifying the characters, setting, problem, solution, and wrap up in your story.


Don't forget that we have our Wellness Walk and our trip to the Flynn to see Stuart Little next week!
