Coming next week...

Next week we will continue learning about place value. We will begin working with numbers through the hundreds and thousands. The big idea is that a "bundle" of ten ones make a ten, ten tens make a hundred and ten hundreds make a thousand.

In reading, we will continue our study of tall tales and look more closely at small versions of famous tall tales. We will discuss hyperboles, the use of exaggeration, evidence of westward expansion and other tall tale characteristics. 

In science, we will begin learning about animals basic needs. We will also begin learning how animals are classified into groups.  (See next post : )!!!)

In writing, we will focus on adding details and begin looking at how to edit and revise. We will continue learning about all the things that make a great story!
