things we have discussed in our writing. Sentences
always start with a capital letter. Spaces are put
between our words. The letter I is always capital when
it’s alone. Periods are used when you are making a
statement. Question marks are used when you are
asking a question. Names of people are capitalized.
Reading- This week we will be reading Stellaluna. Our
focus will be visualizing and interpret through
explanation, and story elements (character, setting,
problem, solution).
Math- This week we will start our unit on 2-dimensional
and 3-dimensional shapes. The students must be able to
name each shape, name attributes for each shape,
identify 2-d shapes on a 3-d figure, and be able to create
2-d shapes using a variety of materials and drawings.
Science- We will observe and describe the location of an
object in relation to another, such as above, below,
behind, in front of, and beside. We will be focusing on
bats this week.
