READING:We are reading the non fiction piece, "Super Storms". We are working on vocabulary, comprehension, main idea and details to support the main idea and visualization. We are working on verbs, compound words and digraphs (wh, th, & sh) in Grammar.
WRITING:
We are writing informational paragraphs. We are starting to be creative in our SQUIGGLE stories each week. This is where the students receive a squiggle mark, then have to draw something using the squiggle and then write about it! We are creating some awesome writing in our journals and we are exciting to do so many writing projects! We continue to work on writing Weekend Reports every Monday. We are focusing on writing a complete sentence with a capital letter, a complete thought, and an endmark. We are also learning to use graphic organizers to help with our prewrites. With every sentence we write, we try to think of one good detail sentence to add to our stories.
