•Parent Homework Helper for Monday: READ IT, DRAW IT, SOLVE IT! In math, students can demonstrate their understanding of a concept by reading/listening to a problem, creating a drawing from their perspective, then solving for the answer and/or write an equation. This way, students learn to look for more than one way to solve a problem while developing confidence in their reasoning abilities and improving problem solving skills. Remember …Read It, Draw It, Solve It!
LANGUAGE: “Laissez Les Bon Temps Roule!” We will have fun this week discussing Louisiana customs and our culture by celebrating Mardi Gras! Through fiction and non-fiction literature, we will discover the many wonderful events and customs associated with this Louisiana holiday. As an added bonus, we will enjoy the annual “MES Mardi Gras Parade” this week hosted by our first graders. Let the good times roll !
Our high frequency word this week is little. I am so proud of the progress our students have made in their journal writing, using more detail in describing their pictures, as well as inventive spelling. We will continue to work on adding action words and attributes to create “juicier” sentences.
MATH: We will continue Unit 4. This unit focuses on counting to 100 by ones and tens, using comparative vocabulary to describe two sets of up to 10 objects, and counting no more than 20 objects. It introduces adding and subtracting and finding number partners within 10. We will also complete a mid-year assessment of students math skills. Also, we will be administering our math mid-year assessments. VOCABULARY: Greater than, Less than, Put together, Add, Total, In all, All together, Take Away, Subtraction
