We will continue looking at how different words can fulfill different roles within simple sentences. The students will continue learning jingles this week. Our focus this week is on prepositions and prepositional phrases. It is extremely important for the students to pay close attention over this next few weeks and ask questions as they have them because the information given is foundational for the remainder of the year. Without it, they will struggle.
We will continue to explore the basic elements of literature while also while reading The Rumpelstiltskin Problem. We began by using a whole class model for exploring literature last week and will continue that up this week.
The students began their first writing piece on Friday in class. We will not dedicate any more class time to that, but it will be due on Thursday, Sept. 10. Please check your son/daughter’s progress on this.
