LANGUAGE ARTS: This week we read and discussed Jack and the Beanstalk and Jackie and the Beanstalk. Both are fairy tales. We worked on skills such as decoding words with /ou/ and /ow/ as in cloud and cow, identifying when to use irregular verbs has/have/had and do/does/did, decoding words with /oi/ and /oy/ as in coin and joy, decoding words with the prefix "mis," using story vocabulary in context, and learning ten new high-frequency words.
MATH: Students subtracted 10 or 100 mentally using place value strategies, used an open number line and models to subtract three-digit numbers, and recorded three-digit subtraction using the standard algorithm with the possible regrouping of tens.
GUIDANCE: On March 27 we will discuss lesson 9 called "Family Connections." In this lesson students will identify seasons and times when families celebrate together and explore how families celebrate and help each other.
HANDWRITING: This week students practiced writing the uppercase cursive A, O, and D.
SCIENCE: We discussed how water can be in the form of a solid, liquid, or a gas. We also explored the water cycle.
SPIRIT DAY: Tomorrow, March 27 is a "Spirit Day" at St. Malachy. Students can pay $1.00 to wear sweatpants or a hat to school if they wish. They money raised will help those in need in our local community.
