Math
This week we started our Teachers' Lounge lessons! Mathematicians are working to solve situational division problems with math partners. Through their problem solving, mathematicians are developing efficient skills to solve problems involving division. Ask your child what situations they have been working to solve!
Please remember to practice math facts nightly! Next week will be our last week working in the Teachers' Lounge lessons. Practice Buddies will start back up on November 13.
Science
The Ninjas are working hard in their Structures of Life unit with Mrs. Waters!
Social Studies
In our Early Settlement unit, the Ninjas have been learning about the first Missourians and late Missouri tribes. Our focus question was, "Who were the first people in Missouri?"
Reading
In our current nonfiction unit, readers continued to develop their nonfiction reading skills. We focused on the learning target "I can tackle challenging texts." We discussed strategies for understanding difficult language and vocabulary in our nonfiction texts.
Writing
In our personal essays, writers worked to organize their drafts by checking to make sure they had strong reasons and evidence to support their claim. Next week we will focus on adding strong evidence to our essays and revise for transitions and introductions.
