Hello all! It was a busy first week and we are headed into our second week, ready to work! This week we will:

Reading: We’re continuing with Fiction work. We are still reviewing the difference between fiction and nonfiction, as well as reviewing the characteristics of fiction (character, setting, problem/solution, and theme). TEKS for fiction work are: 3.1C,D,E; 3.6A,B,C,F; 3.8A,B,C; 3.10A,E. We will read Sophie’s Masterpiece and Under the Lemon Moon as our Read Alouds. We are also continuing to work on open and closed syllable work, which will make our spelling test this week.

Writing: We are still reviewing grammar rules: Grammar: nouns, verbs, adjectives review (anchor chart: review parts of speech. Students will add to interactive notebook and use post it notes to add to chart). We are also practicing with the types of sentences: interrogative, exclamatory, imperative and declarative, as well as the punctuation that goes with these. (3.2Bi)
