Welcome Back!
What a wonderful Spring Break! I hope your time was as restful as ours here in the Cabascango House. We simply hung out, enjoyed neighbors, did home improvement projects and visited the wonderful Science Museum of Raleigh. The new addition is amazing with so many hands-on items from which to learn.
Yet, now it is time to make our final stride toward the finish line. Here we go. . .
READING:
We will be reading an Anansi Tale titled Anansi Goes Fishing. Anansi Folktales originally come from West Africa and revolve around a trickster spider. We will be viewing and reading other Anansi Tales throughout the week.
A great information website about Anansi can be found at: www.anansistories.com. Check it out if
you have time.
Small Groups: This week we will return to our bag books. The books this week will not be as difficult of a level, but will deal with multicultural topics. I thought these selections would be appropriate since we will be diving into multicultural literature as well as multicultural studies in our Social Studies Unit.
There will be a
response sheet due Friday and the test will be given at school on Friday as well.
We will also review pronouns this week.
MEASUREMENT REVIEW with story problems. Students will use their measurement skills to find answers to various story problems this week. We will also touch on Line Plots.
SOCIAL STUDIES:
MULTICULTURAL STUDIES! We are beginning a new unit that revolves around the diversity of people in our country and around the world.
SPELLING:
WORDS THEIR WAY
This week we all will study compound words for our spelling list.
FINAL NOTES:
REPORT CARDS GO OUT FRIDAY!
