Here is a description of our week:
Math- This week we worked on rounding to the nearest ten and hundred. We also added and subtracted two and three digit numbers. The students are getting very excited as I have told them we have one more week of place value then we can start multiplication! :)
Reading-
Our
story this week was Meet an Underwater Explorer by Luise Woelflein. This
story is about an underwater explorer named Sylvia Earle who shares her story
of what life is like as a marine biologist. She is having set diving records,
tested new equipment, and headed an all-woman science team that lived on the
ocean floor for two weeks. With this
story we looked at what it would life underwater would be like. We also took a
deeper
look into the story to find main ideas and supporting
details in the text. Looking at which pieces of information the story was
mostly about and supporting that one idea with other information from this
nonfiction text did this.
Writing- This week we used pictures as writing prompts. The students are working on their creativity.
Science-The plants are growing rapidly. They are being pollinated with bee sticks and starting to use their petals and grow seed pods. Mrs. Clark is reviewing the parts of the plant, and their uses as well as the parts of the bee.
