Merry Christmas!
This week, all classes will have a small Christmas party on Thursday, with the exception of Kindergarten who will have their party on Friday. Feel free to send a small snack for your child to share on the party day. This week's activities and lessons will include...
Kindergarten: We will continue our study of correct word order and punctuation in questions. We will also read a story to hone our reading comprehension and prediction skills. We will finish out the week by writing a "Merry Christmas" acrostic poem.
Grade 1: We will finish typing and illustrating our Question Poems from last week. We will also read a Christmas story called Wombat Divine and answer questions focusing on our use of present tense verbs. Finally, we will write Christmas poems using adverbs like "usually," "never," "sometimes," or "always."
Grade 2: We will finish typing, editing, and illustrating our "My Fable" stories. Then we will read and present our stories to the class. We will finish the week with Merry Christmas, Amelia Bedelia and discuss the multiple meanings of certain words in English.
Grade 4: Our focus this week is using descriptive writing in our language. We will play several class games (online) that focus on descriptive writing, and we will practice writing our own descriptive paragraphs.
