Hello families!
ELA- We started going over text features today! We looked at headings, subheadings, and sidebars along with a few others. The students homework is to finish writing side bars on the article. A side bar is something that adds to the facts given that have to do with the main idea. I asked them to write a 3 bullet point summary on the most important facts of each section for the sidebars. They are to finish the sidebars for the remaining sections for homework. This is found on page 20 of their notebook.
Science- Your kiddos are so smart! I am noticing that the things I am teaching they already learned and are awesome readers. They don't understand the pressure it is sometimes to be up there and get a word and completely blank-yikes! However they saved the day :) So we will continue to look at weather but I am going to challenge them a bit with centers and activities that pushes their knowledge and see how that goes. Their homework is to record the weather of their city into their notebooks! Thanks for your support!
Remember no homework tomorrow for ELA or Haehl's science
Thanks for your continued support,
