Math- We are learning strategies using doubles and doubles plus one. We will be strengthening our critical thinking skills while finding the length and weight of items.
Literacy- We are learning many different ways to begin a story (called leads)--with information about a character, dialogue, sound effects, and a question. Students are incorporating these leads into their stories. As we write, we remember that every sentence must have a noun and a verb, and proper punctuation. We are also talking about different ways to end our stories! Word Study groups continue to work on long vowels.
Bible- March's Bible verse is Matthew 28:5-6- "And the angel said to the women. 'Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he is risen, just as he said.'" We talked about things we know about Easter and questions we have about it. We will spend the month of March answering those questions, learning about the days leading up to Jesus' death on the cross, and Easter.
History- Tuesday's trip to James Monroe's home will be the beginning of our unit on Colonies. We are looking forward to an educational trip. See more info below.
