What are we learning?

In Language Arts, we are learning about how to write an informative/explanatory essay about how living things survive in their environment.
We are also learning about how to use key details to both support a topic sentence and to determine the main idea of a text.

We are also learning how to order and compare numbers up to the thousands place value using number lines. For example: 3,500, 4,678 and 4, 680.
Science
In Science, we are learning about the life cycle of the ladybug. Ex: Egg, Larva, Pupa, Adult Ladybug.
We are also learning what it means to be an Entomologist (a person who studies life cycles of insects), and how we can use observations to learn more about the changes that a ladybug goes through.
Questions to ask your child at home.
What are animal disguises you have learned about?
What does the word camouflage mean and how does it help animals survive?

Social-Emotional Learning
Students are working on taking deep breaths in and outside of the ‘take a break’/ ‘calm down’ corner to be able to regain self-control.
Please have a conversation with your child about how taking deep breaths can help them regain their self-control in the classroom.
