Grandparent's Day is Sunday, September 13th! We will be creating cards for our grandparents!

Language Arts: We will continue learning about Verbs.

Reading Comprehension: We will focus on Connections.

Spelling: This week I will give the students a simple sort that we will practice and learn the different sorting activities together. I will not be testing the students on these words; they will just be used to practice the sorting patterns. On Friday, I will be sending their spelling homework with them that will be used for their first spelling test the following Thursday.

Math: We are still focusing on Time and are starting basic addition and subtraction facts.

This week's math focus:
- Solve subtraction problems that involve finding a missing addend.
- Solve subtraction problems that involve finding a difference.
- Choose the appropriate operation (+ or -) and use it to solve a story problem.
- Understand the relationship between addition and subtraction.
