This week's homework: 15 minutes of reading each night
IXL Math for possible extra practice: any E, any F
Classroom Happenings:
In Reader's Workshop this week, we started to take a closer look at Powerful Moments in our reading and studying the author's moves, asking ourselves questions like, "What made this moment powerful?" and, "How did the author make this moment powerful?" In this next bend of our Reader's Workshop, readers are really working on connecting their reading and writing lives, by taking what they notice when they read and trying to practice it in their own writing work!
In Writer's Workshop, we're working towards publishing our Narrative Writing Pieces as we start studying how to revise and edit our work to make it stronger!
As we move into Math Module 2 (Addition and Subtraction of Length Units), please remember to check your student's backpack for upcoming math newsletters. Also, we did some work with the Math Practices this week and revising our first assessment. After student's finish revisions, we will post our assessments on SeeSaw.
And.. It's been a fun week for Science in 2AN! Students have been studying Harvest Corn and noticing what happened after our "air conditioner leaked into the Harvest Corn bucket"! Oh, no! We've been watching it grow, taking notes about the changes, studying the parts, and even answering some of our own wonderings as we study this phenomena!
Reminders:
Birthday treats! Let me know if you'd like to bring in birthday treats for the class! We have 17 students in the class that are always welcoming of treats. :) We will typically have birthday treats at 10:15am with our snack time. So, if you can drop them off in the morning before snack, we will enjoy them with snack. If not, let me know so I can plan for another arrangement. (Note: We do not have a peanut/treenut allergy in our classroom, but we do have a few students that are to avoid nuts and beans.)
