What we’re

      Workin’ on next week..

Language Arts

 We will be starting a new author study in Language Arts this week!  We are going to study the books that are written and illustrated by Jan Brett!  We will also be doing some fun rotations after we have learned about several of Jan Brett's books!  We will focus on the elements of each story: Characters, Setting, Problem, and Solution!  We will also learn two new word wall words: "to" and "have."  We will also keep writing in our journals! They are doing great!  Book bags will resume on Tuesday, December 1st.

Math

We will starting our unit on money. During this time, the kids will be learning all of the different attributes of all the coins. I will be adding a few new songs to my website for your child to listen to while we are learning all about money!

 

 

We will be starting new daily five stations that are working on extending what we have learned with composing and decomposing numbers.

Science / Social Studies

In Science we will be exploring our Trees & Weather Foss Kit.    We will focus on parts of a tree, types of trees, and how trees change throughout the seasons.  

In Social Studies we are continuing our unit on Family Customs and Traditions.  We will learn how to understand families through their customs, celebrations, and traditions, and how they affect the way in which we live.  We will have an opportunity for families to come and share their family traditions with their child's class the week of December 7-10th.  We still have a few spots available if you would like to share your tradition.  Please contact me at lbrehm@coppellisd.com
