Newsletter 4/7/17

What an exciting week we've had!

In Reading Workshop this week, we learned that avid readers have book play dates, where they have fun with their books in groups.  We combined partnerships into play date groups and learned what we can do on a book play date.  Everyone enjoyed organizing their play dates and reading together.

We edited and published our All About pieces and made projects to match our topics.  They are all on display on the hallway bulletin board.  See our anchor chart photo below.

We continued combining multiple groups while using addition this week.  We worked on an Exemplar about a boy who went to a pumpkin patch 3 times, picking a different amount of pumpkins each time.  How many pumpkins did he have in all?  How do you know?  See our problem solving chart below.

We had a scientist from Mad Science visit this week.  Ask your child about his cool experiments!
