Learning Objectives

Reading: The students will practice making predictions before and during the reading. They will give evidence to support their predictions. Students will evaluate their predictions to see if they were right or wrong.
Writing: Students will engage in opinion writing. They will write about which school lunch would be the best. Students will give reasons and examples to support their opinion. We will continue to work on writing sentences with capital letters, spaces between words, and ending marks. We are also working on writing "juicy" sentences with adjectives, metaphors, and quotation marks.
Math: Students will create and use graphs to compare data. Students will be able to explain which has the most, the least, and how many in all. Students will compare how many more or fewer a certain item has compared to another.
Social Studies: We will learn about President's Day and why we honor this day in February. We will move into a Geography unit later in the week. We will discuss how where you live affects the clothes you war, the animals you see, and the land around you. We will focus on farmland, polar regions, rain forests, islands, and deserts.

Character: Zones of Regulation (The Zones of Regulation is a program designed to help students gain skills in consciously regulating their emotions and actions.)
