GRAMMAR!

1/31/2023

 
We're going deeper with grammar within the context of writing. Up first, we're examining ways to make complete sentences. Can you identify the subject and predicate? Can you use a coordinating or subordinating conjunction? Can you fix a fragment or a run-on?

SKI FOR PE

What a gorgeous, chilly, bluebird day to spend sliding around the mountain.

INFERENCING IN IDR

1/25/2023

 
We've been practicing making inferences in group reading. Now we're practicing in independent reading. We're keeping double-entry journals. We write what we read on one side and what we inference on the other side. It's interesting to see other people's perspectives.

FRONT DESK

1/24/2023

Right now we're reading the book Front Desk by Kelly Yang for read aloud. This is an important book that covers lots of big, important topics. Sometimes, it's hard to read about characters who have vastly different opinions from ours, but we also learn A LOT from them. We've spent a lot of time analyzing the character's similarities and differences, as well as comparing them to characters in other books we've read. Ask us about Mia and her parents, Lupe, Mr. Yao and Jason, and all the weeklies. Ask us what we've learned from the characters and the events that have happened. Ask us how we would have behaved differently or similarly if we were put in their shoes. 

COLORADO EXPLORERS

1/23/2023

 
Colorado history is fascinating. 

MORE NUMBER LINES

1/20/2023

 
Today we used number lines to practice rounding big numbers. We started with rounding to the nearest multiple of 10,000 and 100,000. We'll practice with more multiples next week!

DOUBLE-ENTRY JOURNALS

1/19/2023

 
During IDR, we looked for sensory images in our books. We took note of them in double-entry journals for reference in our own narrative writing. We love learning from our favorite authors.

NUMBER OF THE WEEK

1/18/2023

 
Ms. Block, our math specialist, reintroduced us to Number of the Week. Each week, we get a new number as a class. Our job is to come up with creative ways to make the number using combinations of math operations and concepts that we know.

SENSORY IMAGES

1/17/2023

 
Today we practiced writing sensory images from pictures. Imagine standing in one of the images below. What do you see, smell, hear, taste, and feel?
Tomorrow, we'll practice adding these kinds of images to our own narrative writing.

UKULELE WITH MS. AMANDA

1/11/2023

 
We are enjoying learning the ukulele in music with Ms. Amanda. It's very different than the recorder. We're learning chords, strumming patterns, and our fingers are sore!
