Week of Oct. 30-Nov. 2nd

This was a very hauntingly fun week in our class.
Reading group A read a story about a young girl who started a food drive for the homeless. This group discussed volunteer work and how we can help people in our own community.
Reading group B read a story about tornadoes and how weather effects or communities. This group learned new weather vocabulary. Each group worked on Wilson phonics and did very well. Ask your student to review their new sounds!

Language Arts group A reviewed pronouns amd worked hard learning new material.
Language Arts group B worked on combining information in note form, and transferring it to a paragraph that was written independently. They worked on multiple drafts of two separate paragraphs, one about their favorite sport, and the other about their favorite Halloween costume. They did very well correcting their mistakes and making changes to their sentences.

Have a fantastic weekend!
