Hello everyone!
In math we have been busy in my classroom. Last week in math we focused on multi-digit addition, and this week we are going to focus on multi-digit subtraction. Some students are still struggling with addition. I will be working with the struggling students in small groups this week. Overall the students in my classes have done great with Unit 2. We will be finishing up this unit on Friday. If your student is struggling with addition, I will be sending home some addition and subtraction fact triangles to practice with. Please practice these each night until your child has them memorized.
In social studies we learned all about the different types of privacy: behavior, observation, and information. The students answered these two questions to show proficiency: what is privacy? and why is privacy important? This allows students to understand why we have rights as well as understand that people have different opinions on when they want to be left alone. We also had conversations about when it is not okay to be private and keep secrets- when someone is in danger. Your child will be showing you his/her privacy papers at conferences next month.
This week in social studies, we are going to begin our new unit in which we learn all about the different social scientists.
