Friday News 5/15-5/19

Reading: This week we continued learning how to compare and contrast stories. We read two versions of Cinderella and two versions of Jack and the Beanstalk. The students work with partners and on their own to identify what was the same and what was different about the two versions.

Writing: We started learning how to write our opinion on different topics. We practiced all together with writing what we thought was the best thing to do at recess. Then we learned how to express our opinion and write good reasons.

Math: This week we finished learning about Measurement. We practiced measuring different body parts with a measuring tape and took our chapter test.

Bible: In Bible we started learning about the Fruit of the Spirit. We focused on the first part: love, which means to think of others before ourselves.. We learned about God's love for us and what it looks like to love other people.
