Dear Families of Room F1,
We’re going to have a great upcoming week. Below is a short description of what’s coming up and important links and/or announcements:

Reader’s
Workshop
The students will spend the week researching an animal of their choice. They will study how to build up vocabulary and talk with the lingo of experts and how to discuss our topic with zeal for a new animal or animals of their choice both in class and with library books.
Writer’s
Workshop
The kids will wrap up our writing about research unit going along with our reading unit. They will draft and write all about an animal or multiple animals.
Math
We start a finish unit on telling time intervals (ex. PE started at 10:45 and ended at 11:19, how many minutes was PE). We practice solving problems using t-charts and then students will choose strategies that work the best for them. We will also ask students to make up their own problems and have other students solve them.
Social
Studies
The kids will investigate rules, rights, and laws. We will begin our study of “citizenship” and what it means to be a good citizen.
Science
We will continue our weather unit by what it means to be a meteorologist. We will also study the tools of weather data collection by exploring thermometers.
Thank you,
Mr. Gray
