We learned a little bit more about Miss Ahearn this week!
This week in Literacy we will be reading the piece, Exploring Space with an Astronaut by Patricia J. Murphy. While reading this nonfiction text we will continue to discuss our unit question, “What can we learn from exploring new places and things?” We will also discuss the weekly question, “Why would anyone want to explore space?” This week we will also be exploring the genre of Expository Nonfiction, reviewing long vowels, applying the comprehension skills of identifying the main idea and details of a text and learning about the grammar topic of subjects!

On Friday we took our very first trip to the Media Center! We had so much fun meeting our new Media Specialist, Mrs. Moses and picking out two books to take home! Students are asked to return or renew their media books by Friday so that they can select two new books to take out! Please don't hesitate to contact me with any questions! Happy Reading! 📚
Daily 5 📗
Last week we began learning all about Daily 5! Daily 5 is a literacy center approach that provides students with the opportunity to build their reading and writing fluency, skills and stamina daily! We spent a great deal of time discussing how to pick a "just right book" and how to check our understanding when we read! We also looked at lots of different types of books and discussed which ones would be a great fit and which ones wouldn't! Ask your child to tell you what they learned this past week about Daily 5 and what their favorite part is so far!
