October 15, 2019

Please see our list of words for word work this week. We are short one day this week from the holiday so we will not have time in class to do alphabetical order and LOOK, SAY, COVER, WRITE, CHECK.  Students that feel they would like the extra practice with these words are encouraged to practice extra at home this week.


MATH: We introduced the students to graphing using their minutes from reading to create a graph using Google Sheets to keep track of their minutes over the year.  We will also be practicing reading data on graphs with the Book a Day votes that we have been doing each week. 

SCIENCE:  We are continuing to learn about the different leaps of building that has occurred over the years which has contributed to sky scrapers being taller and stronger. Today the students worked on Leap 2: Materials.  We discovered that buildings that were made of stone were too heavy too make really tall.  Ask your child what materials were used to make a building strong and light. 

DANCE MAT TYPING:  Students are encouraged to practice typing using the link below.
