Weekly Update: October 13-17

Thank you to those who were able to raise money for our fundraiser!!

Reading:

This week we will continue guided reading groups.  We will be using pumpkin books as we focus on retelling stories with a beginning, middle, and end.

Math:

This week we will continue working on addition and subtraction, but we will begin looking at equations with an unknown number.  Here is an example word problem:

There were 7 pumpkins on the porch.  3 of the pumpkins had been carved for Halloween.  How many pumpkins have not been carved?

Math Quests:
We will continue working through our math quests.  Last week, I let them use the entire station time working through quests. . . not my best plan!! Haha  This week we will go back to our three math stations, but one station will be working through their quests.  Here is what our quest looks like.  Feel free to download the Nearpod app and put in the codes to see what we are working on in class! :)

I've also added "Must Do" and "May Do" columns.  Hopefully, this will help students save game time for last! :)
