We had a very busy day. We did a 3-D shape review. They used their math notebooks to complete a chart about each shape. We, of course, did our Glad Minutes.
We are still working on developing a character in writing.
We read a passage today about point of view. We read it three times, three different ways. We then answered a few questions and matched words to their meanings (definitions). I had someone ask yesterday what a definition was. So I explained it to him. With technology, many have gotten away from using dictionaries and other such resources. But this is still a very important skill. Everyone has a dictionary in their desks.
We also read a nonfiction book about the Wright Brothers. I love this book because it has a boy in the story that is about their ages. I also just like reading about the Wright Brothers. Your child brought this book home to read aloud with you. Remember, if your child struggles, you may read it to them or take turns. If your child has a lot of struggles with the book, he or she can go through and point at words and say them. This way. he or she can see which ones they know. And you can see, as well. But I would read it aloud to them first.
Please have candy and/or money returned by Monday. This successful fundraiser has come to an end.
Please return the permission slips for the Thunder Blue
game, as well.
