Just a wonderful Fall week!!
Our story in our Rooted in Reading Series was The Rough Face Girl. This story is compared to Cinderella - check it out on youtube.com! Since it has similarities, we used the two stories to work on the skill of Comparing and Contrasting. We also looked at how often a Mental Image helps us to understand a story and the what the Author wants us to see or learn from the story. In Grammar, we spent a lot of time working on adjectives. What they are, how to find them in a sentence, and how to add them to a sentence ourselves. We even did an Adjective Scoot help us find adjectives in a sentence - lots of fun :)
In Math, we looked at strategies to add two digit numbers to solve word problems. We even used a buddy to help us solve two step word problems! Listening to the students collaborate to solve these problems was wonderful and they really talked about the steps they needed to take!!!
In Religion, we finished our discussion of Confirmation and are beginning to look at the Church Year as we also begin our look at Reconciliation! It was exciting to see two of our students dress up for All Saints Day!
Fr. Don shared this picture of him receiving Communion from the Pope - very cool!
Keep working on those Jesus Books!!
