READING
Your child will be bringing home small paper leveled readers each day in his/her book bag. These are books that we work on in our reading groups together.
WRITING
​
​
We will be writing about our 16th president, Abraham Lincoln.
Math
We are continuing our unit on numbers in base ten blocks. We will be learning that the smallest block represents a "one," a rod represents a "ten," and a flat represents a "hundred," This gives students a visual understanding of the value of each digit in a number by physically manipulating the blocks.
LEADERSHIP
At ILCS this year, we are ROARING. The acronym ROAR stands for Respect self, others, and property, Own your actions, Act safely, and Rise to servant leadership. For the next several weeks, we will be discussing the first R in class - RESPECT. We will talk about what it means to respect, as well as what it looks like. Our goal is to have students take ownership of their own behavior as we all strive to be leaders in our classroom and school.
