This week in language arts, we have been very busy! In reading, we are beginning to learn about different holidays around the world, as well as the wide variety of holidays within the United States.
For spelling and word work this week, we have begun to focus on consonant blends, like dr, st, and bl. Some of the classes made snowmen showing their work with these different blends.
Finally, we have been wrapping up our persuasive writing and getting into Text-to-Self connections. A text-to-self connection is where students read a story and share a memory from their own life that something in the book triggered from their memory.
