Reading
We are reading two books this week. One about grey whale migration and the other about monarch butterfly migration. We will be comparing migration to hibernation.

Writing
We are reading the book Freight Train by: Donald Crews to get writing ideas. We are also focusing on how to write a whole sentence. We will continue to do daily fix-it where the students have to find mistakes in sentences. Students should be starting to use a capital letter to begin their sentence and a period for an ending mark.

We are focusing on letters Ww and Xx this week.

We are learning numbers 11-20 and continuing to compare numbers using new vocabulary like greater and fewer.
