Language Arts:  We will begin a new unit on Tales That Teach Us.  How can we learn from different cultures?  We will read stories from around the world and see how they are the same/different!  We will be talking about the genre fables and folktales.  We will continue working on our sight words and our high frequency words.  This week we will also be breaking apart short passages and closely reading through them to find the main idea and supporting details.

 

Math:  We will be continuing with addition and subtraction strategies, however we will be starting two-step problems!  Use the strategy that works best for individual word problems!  We will also be continuing with our graphs (pictographs and bar graphs).  I am also teaching them about line graphs!
