ELA
To help prepare for the South
Carolina Ready Test, we are
combining our reading and writing.
What we read in shared reading we
will also be writing about. Our focus
will be teaching students to be close
readers and be able to think and
write about the text. This week our
focused text will be about snow
monkeys.
Math
We are starting our unit on fractions
this week. We will be working on

Our unit on rocks will begin this
week. We will look at the different
types of rocks and how they are
classified.
