Literacy
This week we will be reading the story, Anansi Goes Fishing by Eric A. Kimmel. We will continue to discuss the unit question, “What does it mean to be creative?” and will also discuss the weekly questions, “When are creative ideas good? When are they bad?” We will also review the genre of Folk Tale, learn about compound words and apply the comprehension skill of cause and effect.
"Fishing" for conclusions!
Math
This week in math we will continue to learn and practice strategies for adding two, two-digit numbers! The children did a fantastic job last week applying the partial sums strategy that we learned! Ask your child to show you this very helpful method!
This week we started to learn about having a Growth Mindset through watching videos from an educational site called ClassDojo! Ask your child what Growth Mindset is to see what they have learned so far! :)
