Reading: We read the book “These Are the Best Ways to Celebrate Holidays” and talked about the author’s opinions on the best ways to celebrate different holidays. We made connections and discussed our opinions about the best ways to celebrate holidays.
Writing: We filled in a bubble map to organize our thoughts and started writing an opinion book about what we think the best pet would be.
Math: We continued working on addition and subtraction. We decomposed 6 and 7 to solve problems, decomposed 8 and 9 to solve problems, worked on ways to make 10, and decomposed 10 to solve problems. We have one more lesson in topic 8. We will review on Tuesday and take our Topic 8 test on Wednesday. We will not always finish every single question on each worksheet in class. Your student should be bringing home their worksheets each day and can complete unfinished questions at home (optional).
