Reading - We'll continue reading The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe this week. Hopefully, we'll finish the book this week! The students really seem to be enjoying this book.
Writing- We'll continue to write a persona experiences paper about our Jekyll Island field trip. The students are really doing a great job. You can tell they are enjoying writing about Jekyll! I've also submitted 39 entries into the Live Oaks Public Libraries Poetry Contest for Children's Book week! Hopefully we'll get a winner from SCPS!
Language - Mrs. Arant will begin Chapter 2 with the students. They'll cover subjects as nouns, two words making one noun, identifying nouns and verbs, and proper nouns.
Social Studies- We'll continue working on Chapter 3, Pre Civil War. This week we'll wrap up lesson 1 and begin lesson 2. The students will also each be assigned a Civil War battle to research. We'll create mini- battle books using this research!
Have a great week!
Please let me know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns!
