Jan. 23-26

Reading:
We continued learning about main idea and supporting details.
Students are strengthening their abilities to use evidence based terms in their responses.
Students received new spelling words and will test 2/2.

Writing:
We are almost done with our weather informational papers. Many students are just putting on their finishing touches. These will be hanging in the hall for all to read.

Grammar:
We are still learning about possessive nouns. These are a bit tricky so we will spend a bit more time on them. Determining if a noun is plural, possessive or plural-possessive is the hardest part.

Projects:
We are finishing up our earth systems project. Students completed their posters so we will start practicing our presentation for the second graders.
