LANGUAGE ARTS – In Unit 10, Lesson 3 we reviewed long and short vowel u. Our Read Aloud story this week was Our Trip to Washington, D.C. Reading skills that we worked on included predicting and summarizing. We reviewed kinds of sentences. We read decodable book 108 and it went home last week. I hope they continue to read to you at home!
SOCIAL STUDIES – We completed a mini study of Colorado by learning some fun facts about our beautiful state. We learned that our state bird is the Lark Bunting and that our state flower is the Columbine. We identified Colorado on a U.S. map.
