Our Learning Focus for the Week of March 27th
Math: We will review addition and subtraction strategies within 1000.
We will use base ten block models to assist with regrouping. This will consist of breaking apart 100s to get 10s, and breaking apart 10s to get 1s.
Reading/Language Arts: We will continue our unit on multi-paragraph texts. Students will ask and answer questions to understand key details of the texts. Students will also identify the main topic and the author's purpose for the multi-paragraph texts.
Phonics - Unit 19 Contractions
she's, it's, you're, weren't, won't, didn't, you've, they've, we've
They will be asked to identify what two words make up each contraction.
(she is, it is, you are, were not, will not, did not, you have, they have, we have)
Writing: Persuasive Letters / Classmate Biography
Finishing touches will be put on Persuasive Letters and About The Author pieces for Author's Tea.
