Literacy Workshop
Word Study
This week we move ahead into
our Famous Americans project!
We will take a look at the notes
we took during our research in
Mrs. Fouche’s class and prepare
to make our timelines. We will
also begin compiling interesting
facts that we will use in our
informational paragraphs on our
famous American.
This week in word study, we will
be focusing on nouns. First, we
will review proper nouns. Then,
we will begin learning about
possessive nouns. A possessive
noun shows that someone (or
something) owns an item (i.e
mom's flower, Carol's car). We
will learn the rules used to make
a noun possessive.
Math Workshop
Social Studies
This week we will continue our unit on
graphing, where students will apply
their knowledge about graphs to
create their own! At the beginning of
the week, students will work with a
partner to create a bar graph,
pictograph, and line plot to represent
class data. Then, at the end of the
week, students will design their own
survey question to ask their
classmates. Students will then create
each type of graph to represent the
data they collected from their survey.
This will serve as the final assessment
for the unit.
This week the students will begin
their unit on geography in Mrs.
Fouche’s class.
