Anyway, our study of France is underway. This week we will be spending time breaking down our individual topics into two-three subtopics to research. We've done pretty well with this so far, but we could always use a little bit of help. If you are available to help us, we would love it! We'll be doing our research daily from 12:00-1:00 and would love any help we can get. The more the merrier!
This week we are just on a mad hunt for facts about our topics. We are learning how to take notes and will be focusing on putting facts into our own words and eventually into paragraph form. Our final product will be a poster board that will look a bit like this:
This poster board will combine what we have learned in our study of nonfiction texts and what we've learned about France. It's a lot of work, but it's also a lot of fun.
Spelling is all new this week! We are no longer doing spelling sorts. Please read the note I sent home today for more info.
Math this week will continue with our focus on measurement, area, and perimeter. We plan to wrap this unit up by the end of the week. We also are just learning how to roll our fours! We are so awesome!
France is all the rage in our writing and of course our social studies time as well. This week we will be learning about the geography of France, the French Flag and may even get into a little bit of government if we have time.
I think that's all for now. Thank you so much for reading!
