READING – Our essential question is: “What can we see in the sky?” To help us answer the question we will read, How Many Stars in the Sky?, What a Beautiful Sky!, and What Will the Weather be LIke? The students will review the high frequency words, “come, me, with, my, you, what, are”, and “now.” In addition we’ll review blending and decoding using “b,” “n,” “f,” and short and long “a.” We’ll also practice reading fluency and reading with expression, story sequence, and author’s purpose as we read “Pam Cat” and “Come with Me” in our Readers. This week is a review week for Unit 3, and we will have a Unit test next Thursday, February 16th.
MATH – The concept of subtraction or “take away” continues to be our focus. We have been writing subtraction sentences and learning how it differs from addition.

He that cannot forgive others breaks the bridge over which he must pass himself; for every man has need to be forgiven.
