Tuesday

Tomorrow is the 3B's assembly. Please have your child wear black and yellow if possible.  We talked a lot about certain vocabulary that students may hear at the assembly.  I read the book Don't Laugh at Me.  Students will hear more about bullying at the assembly. 

Our writing lesson was about Show Don't Tell.  This is a strategy where authors use words to describe things, rather than come right out and tell you how a character is feeling.  I read When Sophie Gets Angry and we talked about how we show anger. Then students wrote a description of someone who was angry. We all shared our best sentences with the group.

Today in word work, I introduced the 5 new word wall words for the week. Tomorrow, we will switch groups for WIN time based on a phonics assessment.

In math, we continue our study of bar models. We are working with comparison models.  Students are working well with it.
