February 22nd, 2013- Road Construction in Rainbow City

Highlights from the Week:
  • Special Theme of the Week: Community Helpers
  • Heart Word of the Week: little
  • In language arts, we practiced summarizing a story we read.  We read a nonfiction article about various jobs and talked about how many nonfiction books/articles have captions.  We also practiced coming up with rhyming words in the -ap family, blending sounds together in order to read them, and counting the syllables in our names.
  • In writing, we drew a picture of ourselves doing a job that we want to do when we grow up.  We also wrote a speech bubble describing what we are.
  • In math, we have started working on story problems.  We are solving addition and subtraction problems using pictures.
  • During social studies, we continued to develop our city.  We "built" roads using tape, learned some driving rules and took a driver's test.  We also created signs for our roads.  This week, we also talked about laws and we came up with some laws for our city.
  • During community centers, our city was open.  We added three new businesses.  We now have a fire department that puts out any fires we may have.  We also added a police department.  Police officers hand out tickets to students that have been caught being good!  A band was also added this week so we could get more money for our city and also deposit extra money we did not need.
