Language Arts: In reader's workshop, we are learning to take charge of our own comprehension. We are also continuing our writing work on small moments and narratives. Finally, in our independent reading time, we are using all of our reading skills to help us improve our reading stamina. We are working hard!
Social Studies:
We continue to think like geographers as we learn how to read maps. We are learning about map grids, hemispheres, latitude and longitude, keys/legends, political maps, population maps an creating our own map grid, key/legend.
Science: Our second tower garden harvest will occur soon!!! It is exciting to watch our gourmet lettuce, bokchoi, basil and mint quickly grow in the tower garden. Mint was transplanted from soil to our garden and are in awe of the way it has adjusted after we cut roots. We share this garden with other classes who will put the finishing touches on it this week! We are having the best time learning what successful scientists do!
***Often we post things on our class SeeSaw accounts as well on our Google Classroom accounts. Ask your child to show you what he/she has done so far!
