Curriculum

This next week  we will be continuing with our theme of folktales around the world.  We will compare different versions of the same tale which will allow us to put our own creativity to work by writing our very own version of a popular folktale/fairy tale.  We will also be looking at using prefixes and suffixes on words and how it changes their meaning.  During our Math time we will be wrapping up our unit on money by working on adding and subtracting different amounts of money.  We will also get into estimating a bit more.  Money will definitely be revisited throughout the school year.  If you have any extra opportunities at home to allow your child to count your change that will only solidify and help them retain this very important skill.  During our time in Science, we will begin discussing weather which is always a fun and exciting topic to learn about!
