We read The
Grouchy Ladybug this week and then wrote our own version. We also learned how persuasive writers can
include an “or else…” moment in their writing to make it more powerful. We made a chart to help us become more
independent as authors.
In Second Steps this week we discussed the first
steps to solve a problem. Please see the homework sent home on Friday to review.
We
really worked on thinking and planning what
we need to do when presented with a math problem. What can I do to help me solve this
problem? What tools will help: tally
marks, pictures, a table, etc.? We also
wrote a class book with ladybug addition!
Animals are also living things, so it’s time for us to observe
their growth! Enter our class pets- ladybugs! We can’t wait to see them
grow and change over time. We did all
things the ladybug way this week. We
also had High Touch/High Tech come in for a “Get Buggy!” lesson, where we learned
all about insects.
