Language Arts: Today in Reading, we reviewed our Rit vocabulary for the week, discussed our story, and listened to our read aloud.
In Grammar, we reviewed again subjects and predicates and worked on our new concept of simple and compound sentences. We also started our new program called Vocabulary Vine.
Today we introduced the word part tele-. This program will help us build our vocabulary and boost our comprehension and word choice in writing!
In Writing, we worked as table groups to make a piece of writing better by adding in specific details, vivacious verbs and awesome adjectives! I was thrilled at how well the kids worked together as a group to develop their writing.
Homework:Fluency and Flow is due on Friday.Independent Spelling tests are on Friday as well. Also, it is not too early to read a book and start to work on the first book project. The cereal box project is due Oct. 10.
Math: Today in Math, we spent a lot of time working on white boards on various skills. We spent quite a bit of time on adding fractions. This is becoming more concrete and although they need more practice, they are beginning to feel more confident.
