Weekly Update
October 3-7, 2016

Learning Targets/Topics
Word Study/Spelling:
We are working now on a whole group word study lesson in order to learn the routines.  This week or next, your child should bring home more information about the word study learning block and how they can practice their individual words at home.
Reading:
~ I can write a response to my reading.  
~ I have strategies to help me understand the author’s message when I’ve read something that doesn’t make sense.
~ I can write a letter to someone about a book I’m reading.
I have began meeting with guided reading groups.  Have your child read at home and look on our blog for ideas of how they can write about their reading or discuss their thinking with someone at home.

Writing:
~ I can write a personal narrative bit by bit.
~ I can write a beginning in which I introduce the setting, characters, and hook the reader.
Math:   
~ I can tell the two tens or hundreds a number is between.
    (  72 is between 70 and 80; 147 is between 100 and 200)
~ I can find the number halfway between two numbers.
~ I can round numbers to the nearest 10
~ I can round numbers to the nearest 100
