for the week of Mar. 1
Quarter 3 Week 5
Email blog Twitter
A note from Mrs. Chern…. Thank you to everyone. All the kids participated in dressing up at
Dr. Suess characters and we had a blast. We shared stories, listened to stories, sang our favorite
birthday song and had a special treat. The kids have been an A-MAZ-ING team since we tracked
back in. Today we celebrate 10’s in specials 10 days in a row. WOW! For that we voted and we are
going to paint with marbles next week. We also earned 10 BEARS Tickets as a class. WON-DER-
FUL. For that we voted and we will have popcorn and a “movie” next week as well. They are really
on a roll. We are still working on our research and All About books for our community. This time we
will publish using Google Slides. The kids can’t wait. Once they complete their “education” (Ie, their
All About slide show) their payment will be a house and they can start construction on their place of
work for our community. We should be able to finish this up by next week.
Upcoming Week’s Standards…
Reading: Spot and Dot strategy to decode two syllable words, using text features and text to
read non-fiction
Writing: Completing and publishing using Google Slides, reviewing the components of
narrative writing, being a narrative piece about a day in the life of a worker in our community
Spelling: Unit 21
Math: solving word problems with 2 digit numbers using number lines and subtracting 2 digit
numbers
Social Studies: How and Why do communities change? Building our community
is - What is something that makes you feel excited?
… There is a reading passage and questions. Remember Monday (read),
Tuesday (read and question 1), Wednesday (read), Thursday (read and question 2). Fluency is
key. For Math there are two sets of word problems practicing different strategies. One page
practices using 10 sticks and 1’s and the other is using a number line. See the example on the
number line page to see how we are working on regrouping.
