The girls were excited to reunite after Thanksgiving break! We played "Find Someone Who" Thanksgiving addition to share highlights from our time away. We definitely are in the holiday spirit in room M02! Thank you for all your generous donations for the LS outreach project. Our class was able to fill 7 stockings with small toys for children in need!
During math this week, we reviewed 2 by 2 digit multiplication and practiced breaking apart bigger numbers to make division easier. Next week we will wrap up unit 3 and assess.
In reading we began a new novel, Bob, by Wendy Mass and Rebecca Stead. Throughout this story, we will work on strengthening reading comprehension as well making inferences with evidence. I also introduced the girls to word analogies this week. We talked about the 7 common types of word analogies and how making bridge sentences can help us determine the relationship between the pair of words. The girls are loving solving them!
I bet your daughter will tell you the highlight of her week was testing out a new computer game. During the Oregon Trail game, the girls we asked to make important decisions based on what we have learned about the long, hard voyage west during the Westward Expansion. Ask your daughter more about the Westward Expansion Simulator game!
