Nine reports are now completed and only one left to do seminar. Today we blended through the /j/ sound spelled 'j' and "short vowel, dge". We worked on our third thinking map: bubble map. The topic of our map was ourselves. The main idea is to describe yourself using 6 (or more) adjectives. This map is good for developing sensory detail in writing. Obviously we had to discuss and define the term 'adjective'.
We will be beginning a new unit on Monday as well as beginning our first reading tests. This next unit's topic will be workers in our neighborhood. We will be moving through the writing process again and completing a report on a worker of our choice.
In math we discussed word problems involving subtraction. There is no homework.
Congratulations to table 2 for beating the standard of 75 grams. Successful completion of a dictation exercise pushed them over the requirement. Next week's goal will be 80 grams.
