ELA: This week I will be doing Guided Reading with groups of students during Daily 5 time. Other activities this week include reading and writing a funny Valentine's poem, listening to stories about friendship, and doing some Valentine's themed word work. The school theme this month is about Caring. Our Valentine's activities will all have a similar focus on caring, sharing, being a friend, and celebrating the people and things we love.
Math: We are well into our Adding and Subtracting to 100 unit. Students added 10, and multiples of 10, to numbers using a hundreds chart. We built numbers using different manipulatives and learned there are more than 100 ways to make a hundred! This week we will be adding 1 and 2 digit numbers, and adding 2 digit numbers together. We will be exploring several strategies to help us add these bigger numbers. Knowing the basic facts helps us to do math quickly. We will continue to practice these at school. Practicing at home will help too.
Science: We are nearing the end of our Magnetism study. We will begin our new Social 'Culture' unit by doing a Gallery Walk hosted by Mrs.Suter's grade 2 class Thursday afternoon.
*Notes with information on our upcoming class Valentine's Party and 100 Day celebration activity will go home Monday.
