We had a great day today!
If you noticed, your child came home with a behavior chart
yesterday. Please remember to look over and initial each day. I
have learned that students on their best behavior learn better!
We did another multiplication puzzle today. It
was harder, as it was the factors of 12. I wanted to see if they could
use strategies we have gone over to figure them out. We also made
In and Out boxes. These are boxes that have patterns/rules. We have
to figure out the rule/pattern in order to complete a box.
We read again today. Tonight's reading assignment is
chapter 10. We are enjoying this book. We also worked on author's
purpose. This is why someone wrote what they did. For example. our
"Oklahoma" book we have been reading, gives us a lot of factual
information. Therefore, it was written to inform. We made a chart
for our notebooks to help us. We drew a slice of pie for the top of
the page in our notebooks. Then we added the following:
P-Persuade
I-Inform
E-Entertain
When reading with your child, ask why they think an author
wrote a certain book or article. It could even be a recipe. A
recipe was written to inform someone how to make a dish.
Have a great evening!
