I hope you enjoyed the beautiful weather this weekend! It's preparing us for summer!
Our last 2 1/2 weeks will be very busy!
Life Science
This week we are finishing up our animal unit with choosing and researching an animal on Nat Geo Kids.
We will find information about our animal and fill in the blanks on a given sheet. Then, we will use that information to write a research paper. It will be quite an accomplishment!
Please have a shoebox (better not to be too big) to school by Thursday. If you do not have one, please let me know ASAP.
We will be making our animal habitat with the shoebox!
Phonics
This week we are learning about:
-ind--find, mind, blind
-ild--mild, wild
-old--told, fold, mold
high fluency words: most, even, another, never
Math
3D shapes--naming the shape (cube, cylinder, cone, rectangular prism, sphere)
How many faces and vertices does each have and what shapes can we compose combine 3D shapes together.
Our last math test over these concepts will be Thursday.
