Reading: 
This week we continued studying characters.  We have been making connections to the characters feelings, actions, and problems.  Connections give us a deeper understanding of characters.   

Writing:
In writing this week, we finished our informational writing unit.  Each child chose their favorite non-fiction booklet to fix and fancy up by coloring the pictures.  I collected these and will be grading them for the end of the year report card.  Next week we will start a new unit on opinion writing.  We will begin by talking about the difference between facts and opinions.  We will also learn how to use reasons to support our opinions.  

Word Study:
This week we reviewed /aw/ spellings and learned five different spellings for /l/.





Math:
This week in math, we focused on partners of 10 and on showing a teen number as a group of ten and extra ones.
