Moby Max
A great resource you can use at home is Moby Max. You can download the app on your phone/tablet or you can use the website below on a computer. Students can get on and practice a lot of different skills! They get to use this website in the classroom as well. The log-in information is their lunch number.

Writing

Today we began our Opinion Writing unit!! We watched a short video on fact vs. opinion and then played "Would You Rather". Students moved from one side of the room to the other depending on what they would rather do, and some of the options were gross!! Eating a bug or cat food was just one example. GROSS!!! It was fun seeing their reasoning behind their opinion. We do a candy tasting tomorrow and students will write a response on their favorite one and why. Opinion writing is so much fun!! 

Language Arts

We are working on inflectional endings (s, -ed, -ing) and the different sounds of -ed. -ed can sound like /id/ (excited), /t/ (soaked), and /d/ (tired). 

Math

Base ten is one of our most important units in math! This really helps students to understand the basics of numbers and what they mean. Students are learning that 23 is not just a 2 and 3, but 2 tens and 3 ones. The 2 tens represent 20, and the 3 ones are 3. We are also staring to regroup the tens. For an example, see the picture below.
