Friday News 9/9-9/13

Here's a look at our week:

Reading: We learned how to read longer and harder words by breaking them apart. Then we practiced by reading different facts about animals. We also started our Read to Someone practice.

Writing: We started our narrative writing unit by thinking of ideas we could write about. We thought about special memories with important people and about times we felt a strong emotion.

Math: We worked on word problems this week and also reviewed for our chapter 1 math test.

Bible: We learned all about prayer this week. On Thursday we practiced with four different prayer stations.
