Week of August 23-27

A look at what we will be studying this week.....

• In Language Arts we will continue writing Friendly Letters.  We will read a book called Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus.  This is a really fun story, we will write a letter to the pigeon explaining why he should not drive the bus!  We will be using the 5 parts of a friendly letter. We will also be reading a book called The Important Book.  Using this book we will see how the author followed a pattern amd then we will write our own page to add to the book.  We will continue with centers and learning the rules.
• In Math we will continue studying graphing.  The students will have a Math Test on Wednesday over what we have learned so far.  For homework on Tuesday night there will be a review page.  We will also discuss the meaning of addition by joining groups, joining and completing number sentences, and counting on when adding.
• In Social Studies we have been talking about how we belong to a group and that every group has a leader and rules to follow.  We will look at the different jobs in the American School and discuss the types of jobs we should have in our classroom.
