Week Overview
Morning Meeting/SEL (Social-Emotional Learning) - We continued to learn about empathy using our SEL lessons.
Handwriting - We learned how to write r and s in cursive and practiced writing some words. The kids are doing a great job with this skill!
Reading -  We compared different fairy tales with their fractured version using a venn diagram.
Writing -  We did a review of proper nouns and singular vs. plural nouns. We started writing out ideas for a fiction story; we are using this unit to practice our typing skills as well. The kids will get to choose if they want to write or type their final copy.
Math - We learned how to measure to the nearest inch using a ruler. We will be learning how to measure to the nearest pound (weight) and nearest degree (temperature).
Science - We learned about the states of matter - solid, liquid, gas. We will focus more on how items can change between the states.

Have a superb weekend,
