How can it be NOVEMBER?! Time has flown by this year and we are well into the swing of things.  I am so thankful that I get to spend my days with these incredible kids. Each one of them is a unique and special part of our class. I just cannot imagine our class without any one of them.  Thank you for sharing them with me each day!!!

Reading:
In Unit 2 Week 4, our comprehension strategy is rereading to help us understand a text better.  The expository texts we are reading this week are “Whooping Cranes in Danger,” and “Kids to the Rescue!”.   While reading, we are going to be using details in the text to determine the author’s point of view.

Phonics:
Three Letter Blends: -spr, -str, -squ, -thr

Vocabulary:
-success     -caretakers     -population     -recognized     -relatives     -resources     -survived     -threatened
In class, we learn about these vocabulary words in connection to ourselves. If you notice your child using any of these words in context, this would be a great opportunity to celebrate their efforts!

NOVEMBER POEMS
Each month students are required to memorize at least one poem.  Below are the month’s poems.  We only read through these in class once, so they need to be practiced at home.  Students can pass off poems on Fridays whenever they are ready to recite them.
