Here we come February!!

I can't believe that its February! Guess time flies when you're having fun.This week we are reading the last story of Reading Street Unit 3. It's wonderful to see the growth in students being able to find the correct answers within the text for the weekly comprehension tests. That is a very important skill to learn for the 3rd grade OAA tests.We are focusing on learning how to answer questions in complete sentences and on the clues of what "WH" questions are asking. For example, Why-would be asking us to answer with a reason, When- we would need to answer with a reference of time, just to name a few. We are working on brochures called "Welcome to My Community" in Social Studies. We will displaying them in our hallway within the next week. I am sad to take down the students timelines because they all did such a great job.
