Dear 1B Families,
This week we focused on author’s purpose in reading and writing. Authors write to persuade, inform, and entertain. We started our own writing using author’s purpose. The letters and sounds we focused on this week were short vowel sounds. We are continuing to identify fiction and nonfiction genres. In math, we finished our chapter on graphing- bar graphs, pictographs, and tally charts. We then did a unit review and next week we will move to unit 2 on addition and subtraction to 10. In science we are continuing to study plants, this week we talked about deciduous trees and evergreen trees.
Today, we attended an amazing Veteran’s Day Assembly led by the 6th grade students and we heard from guest speaker, Veteran Louie Siggins. Enjoy the day off on Monday, Happy Veteran’s Day!
Have a wonderful long weekend!
