Students build models of their homes to put on our 3D Map.

Blue and Clear Home Reading Bags
Many students have already returned their blue and clear home reading bags to me.  If you haven't yet please send those bags back so I can use the books again next year.  Also, if you see a book from our Media Center around your home get it back to Ms. Reader so she can get the library in order.

Curriculum Overview
Science/Social Studies - We are studying and mapping the neighborhood here in Northside.  Students will build small models of the homes and apartments where they live to create a 3D representation of our neighborhood.  We will also build a model of A2 STEAM, the Kroger Shopping center, and Leslie Science Center to add to our map.

Math - As part of our 3D mapping we are reviewing 3 dimensional shapes and figures as well as becoming more fluent with our addition and subtraction math facts including problems that have more than one step or addend.

Literacy - We have been reading non-fiction books about neighborhoods as well as enjoying some books by author Chris Van Allsburg.

Writing - Students are writing and drawing about their favorite spot in their neighborhood.  We are also finishing up some writing in Seesaw that needs final revisions.

Word Study - We are finishing our study the qu- and tw- bends.  Words like queen, quick, twin, and twist.  We will also be reviewing synonyms and antonyms.
