Religion: During our Second Steps class we will talk about and role play ways to start a friendly conversation with our friends. As a class we will also talk about the fact that Jesus helps us show kindness to others in many different and the ways in which we have grown and changed in the last year.
Reading: This week we start a new chapter book called “Treasures in the Trees” about a little girl who does not want her parents to sell their home. This little girl sets out to prove to them that there is something special living in the trees in their back yard using scientific strategies.
Spelling: Our words this week are a review from the Units 7 to 11. As we go through the week the students will review the different spelling patterns they have learned to use. These patterns are: vowel – consonant – silent e, Long A spelled ai and ay, Long E spelled ee and ea, Long I spelled i and igh, Long O spelled ow, oa and o.
Phonics: Students will read and write words with consonant digraphs. They will also identify consonants digraphs at the beginning, middle and end of words.
Math: The students will work on reviewing the beginning concepts of multiplication that they have learned in chapter 3. They will practice using the identity and zero properties of multiplication, making arrays to figure out simple facts and using addition and multiplication to solve the same problems.
Social Studies: The class will learn about the geography of Denver, Colorado. They will spend time learning about long ago and modern day Timbukto as well. After reading about these places the students will use close reading to answer questions in Google Classroom.
