FALL is in FULL Swing!

Hello!

  Another week has passed and we've been working hard in Room 212. Here's what we've been up to.

      In Reading we are learning how to make connections to the text we read, ask ourselves clarifying questions, and respond to literature using Kidblog. We've also been practicing the 1-1-1 Doubling Rule for spelling.
 *When adding a vowel suffix such as -er  -ed- ing ask 3 questions:
Is is a one syllable word? Does it have one short vowel sound? Does it end in one final consonant? If yes then double the final consonant.
Here they are creating Avatars on Kidblog! 

  In Math we started our Multiplication and Division Unit. We made arrays to represent factors and products and used the Commutative Property to develop an understanding of the relationship b/t multiplication and addition.
 ****If you'd like to help your child learn his/her facts, I will be sending home some card games you can play and I am going to set up a MATH GAMES links page on the blog over the next few days. You can also use Compass Learning. your child knows his/her login and password.

 In Science we are finishing up presenting our Google Slides Projects on GA Habitats and we will be kicking of our case study next week! :)

 Lastly, if you are at Target over the weekend, please grab a package of SKINNY EXPO markers!                                                         We are using them up left & right! :)
