Curriculum News

  During our Reading/Literacy time, we will be taking a look at several different stories written by the author Laurence Anholt.  While he has written a variety of types of books, we will be focusing on some of his stories that tell a bit more about some very well-known artists.  Our stories will also give us a chance to look at some very famous works of art such as Van Gogh’s Sunflower painting and Monet’s Water Lillies….just to name a few.  Students will also be working a bit more on their concept books as we try to complete them before the end of the school year!

In Math we will be spending our time working with fractions.  Students will get the opportunity to see how important fractions are as we take a closer look at how they are used in our daily lives.  We will still continue our work with reviewing basic facts to help ensure retention as they progress to more challenging concepts in the years to come.

During our Science time we will continue to take a look at our environment and the weather.  We will be tracking and monitoring our weather and get a taste of what it takes to be a meteorologist!
