This week, we will be doing Thanksgiving activities that relate to our content in class. As always, when your child brings home work from class, no matter the subject, ask him/her what it is and what they learned. This not only keeps you up to speed with what your child is learning, but it also forces that to revisit those skills in memory and they will be better accountable for their learning and what we are doing in class.
Spelling: We will be learning the /th/ sound in words this week. Words beginning with and ending with the /th/ sound. (chip, chin, inch, itch, catch, match, wish, shop, how, many)
Reading: Our story this week is "I Am a Butterfly." We will be reading the story however we have a Thanksgiving theme for all of our subjects.
Math: We are beginning to understand subtraction this week and will continue when we return from Thanksgiving Break.
Social Studies: We will discuss important facts about Thanksgiving as well as similarities and differences and the relevance of the holiday.
Science: We will be talking about Thanksgiving in terms of solid, liquids, and gasses. As we talk about the holiday through the week, we will discuss the properties from that time period as well as discuss simple machines in motion. This ties in with our ongoing activity for our marble runs.
