What Happened This Week!



               MATH-TASTIC
In math this week the kids learned to use different strategies to solve their word problems! Some strategies the students’ used were cubes, a ten’s frame, number lines, or drawing pictures.  Here’s a peek. J



The students LOVED coming up and being “The Teacher”. One friend used the Inverse to check his problem. What a smart cookie!
                   
                       SCIENCE

Let's Save Water! In science this week the students learned all about water! The students discussed How much water we use everyday, Why water is important, and How to help conserve water. 

Here is some posters the students' were creating on "How to Conserve Water." 

 The friend above did a fabulous job with his poster. He talked about how drinking water wasn't being wasteful since we need water! 

 These friends decided to draw ways to help conserve water around the house! 





The students had a blast making their posters and presenting them to their classmates on Friday! What a great way to help spread the word about conserving water!


                      Writing


The students have been working very hard in writing. Throughout the week the students have been working on making a book with the same topic. The things they can come up with are amazing!

Here is one friend during “Author’s Chair” sharing her writing with the class!


               Language Arts
Good Writers and Readers Ask Questions!

During our lessons this week we really focused on questioning! What makes a good question, and what question words can we use!

The students practiced good questions with their buddy during buddy reading!

The students and I talked about before, during, and after questions to keep us on track while we read!
