Week in Review : March 14th -18th

It was an awesome week in Lower Elementary! Students worked very hard on their jobs and enjoyed many presentations!

For language jobs this week, first grade students had further practice with prepositions, prefixes, analogies, and ABC Order. Second grade students had further practice with homonyms, symbolized sentences containing a pronoun, and reviewed analogies and ABC Order. Third grade students had further practice determining facts from opinions, reviewed the rules for placing quotation marks within a sentence, reviewed analogies, and analyzed sentences in order to find the direct object of a sentence.

For math jobs this week, first grade students worked with addition, multiplication, and subtraction operations, reviewed probability, determined odd and even numbers, and identified equivalent fractions. Second grade students worked with math operations, reviewed probability, solved two step word problems, and reviewed even and odd numbers. Third grade students worked with all math operations, reviewed probability, identified time vocabulary, and wrote decimal numbers in word form.

For cultural jobs, students began a unit of study on Native Americans in History. In science, students had continued study of photosynthesis. In Geography, students began a unit on Biomes. Using the computers, students discovered the different types of biomes and chose one to research.

We look forward to a wonderful week next week!
