This week (surprise, surprise!) we continued to practice what it looks like and sounds like to effectively work in groups. This means listening when someone else is sharing their ideas, explaining your own ideas, and remembering that one student is not more important than the whole team.
This week in academics:
- We continued reading Hatchet and took a comprehension quiz on major events in the book so far.
- We continued our spelling/vocabulary routine with homework
- We learned about "expanded expanded form" 3,529.8 --> (3 x 1,000) + (5 x 100) + (2 x 10) + (8 x .1)
- We compared and ordered decimals by lining up decimals and place values vertically.
- We identified and used the three verb types. (action verbs, linking verbs, and helping verbs)
- We learned to used atlases
- We took this year's first round of Galileo Testing, which is a test taken on ipads that shows student growth throughout the year and can help us find areas to improve on in our classroom.
Next week:
- RTI reading/language groups start on Monday.
- Magnet Monday starts on Monday!
- (In two weeks) September 10th is Connect to School Night
