Here is a look at our week: Reading: We learned how to read difficult words by looking for blends at the beginning or end of words, breaking words into syllables, or looking for words within the difficult word. We made began practicing Reading to Someone this week! Phonics: We reviewed our vowel teams and looked for them within poems! Writing: We learned what a personal narrative is. We practiced coming up with good story ideas by thinking up memories with special people and memories from specific types of emotions. Math: We learned how to solve problems with missing addends. We learned about fact families and two step word problems. On Friday, we reviewed the chapter by solving clues to get an escape code. We will have our Chapter 1 Math test next Thursday. Science: We learned that not only to Butterflies have a egg, larva, pupa, and adult stage but other insects do too. We also watched our 2nd caterpillar turn into a chrysalis. Bible: We learned about Abraham and Lot, and we learned about prayer. We learned that we can praise, ask, say sorry, and give thanks in our prayers. We had different prayer stations on Thursday where we practiced each of those things. Important Information:
