Thanks for a great week of conferences! I enjoyed each and every conference with you! I was SO VERY proud of my students as they shared what they are good at, what they need work in and shared all what they learned this year so far. I know you all were so very proud of them too!
This week:
Reading: Our reading strategy was Fables which are stories with animals in them that teach a moral or a lesson. We read some familiar ones such as “The Ugly Duckling” and “The Little Red Hen” and the students were able to see the lessons and we realized many of the lessons were to be KIND, or HARD-WORKING, or RESPECTFUL, or SELF-CONTROLLED! (sound familiar :)
Math: We are cruising through graphs! We learned about bar graphs this week and now we can connect tally chart, picture graphs, and bar graphs!
Writing - We started writing our own fairy tales. This week was all about brainstorming our stories of a setting, good characters, bad characters, magic, problem and solution, and beginning middle and end!
Bible: We learned about David’s life as king this week then took a little break from David to go back to the life of Jesus. We learned about his many miracles and amazing things that he did while he walked on the earth. Next week we’ll talk about the events leading to Jesus’ death and resurrection!
Next Week:
Spelling Words: that what this with which then when white where path put each down
Bible Memory Verse: “He is not here; he is risen, just as he said.” Matthew 28:6a
