Language Arts
In Reading this week, we will start our study on Non-Fiction. We will use non-fiction resources focused on BATS for the next few weeks as an added bonus to our study on non-fiction texts. As adults, we take for granted the many features a non-fiction text grants us as we read. Third graders will be learning to identify and discuss the purpose of various text features over the next few weeks. We will be creating an anchor chart similar to this one from the blog, Second Grade Style.
Last week was fun, but we have some catch-up to do in writing. We will begin critiquing narrative pieces this week. Students will create their own lists of what narratives may have and must have to make them an entertaining and informative piece for a reader.
We have parent/teacher conferences on Thursday and Friday of this week. Since Thursday and Friday will be half days, we will NOT have spelling words this week. Please look for new spelling words to come home on MONDAY, OCTOBER 28.
We took our first social studies test last week. We will spend time in Social Studies this week focusing on daily topics associated with RED RIBBON WEEK. HCE commits to being drug-free (alcohol, to
bacco, and drugs) by accepting and signing the pledge card at school and home with a parent
