Learning Units:
Reading - Summarizing - Students will be reading in reading groups at their instructional level, but also practice reading passages that are on grade level. Students will be working on summarizing fictional stories and work on vocabulary words that could have multiple meanings.
Writing - Fictional Spooky Stories - Students are still hard at work on their spooky stories! Next week, we will be working on revising, editing, and publishing writing. Students are still working on creating their own illustration in Art for their readers to see their setting.
Math - Area & Multiplication - Students will begin Unit 2 next week and will encounter the concept of area, relate the area of rectangles to multiplication, and solve problems involving area.
Science - Life Cycles- We will begin our first science unit next week! Students will begin learning about life cycles in plants and animals. They will be able to explain characteristics inherited from parents or influenced by the environment.
Health - Healthy & Unhealthy Influences- Students will distinguish between healthy and harmful influences. This will include talking about how to make positive health choices, and to stand up for ourselves when others try to influence us to do a possible dangerous activity.
