Literacy:  In writing, students are working on the second part of their procedural writing “The Body”.  In this part, students will use the transition words; First, Next, Then, After that, Finally.  Using these words, help to keep students writing organized and clear.  Spelling:  We are continuing to review the concept of “Polite Partners”.  Polite Partners are when 2 letters come together and the first letter makes the sound (last week’s spelling concept), or when 2 letters come together and the second letter makes the sound, or when 2 letters come together and make a completely different sound. all, ball, call, fall, small, stall, tall, wall (these make the “awl” sound). shall (makes the “ al” sound). Math:  We are continuing to work on our “measurement unit”.  Students will not have homework this week in math.  You and Your World:  Students are continuing to work on their habitat projects.  We are hoping to complete these in the next week so we can present them to other grades and possibly parents. Have a great week and enjoy this last week of March!
