Week Overview
Morning Meeting/SEL (Social-Emotional Learning) - We learned about social awareness and how we can be similar and different from others.
Reading -  We learned about connections (text-to-self, text-to-text, text-to-world). Next week, we will start learning about 
Writing -  We focused on ending punctuation (period, exclamation mark, question mark) and when to capitialize a word ("I", first word in a sentence, proper nouns). Next week, we will take our writing knowledge and start practicing full sentences and fixing sentences.
Math - We started learning about 2-digit place value (tens and ones). Next week, we will practice skip counting (1s, 5s, 10s).
Science - We started our scientific method unit (question, hypothesis, experiment, observe, record data, and draw conclusions) and did a couple of experiments. We will continue this next week.

Have a magnificent weekend,
