Here's an update of what we've been up to in our classroom:
*In reading we've been talking about "author's purpose," or why the author wrote the book (for entertainment, to inform you of something, or to persuade you)
*In writing we are beginning to learn about writing opinion pieces. We learned how to write book reviews with our opinion of the book, 3 reasons to support our opinion, and a conclusion sentence.
*In math we have been working on comparing amounts of money, adding and subtracting money, and solving word problems involving dollar bills and coins.
*Our new science unit focuses on taking care of the environment and learning about energy.
