Greetings! Happy Thursday! I hope everyone is having a good week and is staying warm and dry.
In Religion class today, we began our study of Holy Week. Today we looked at the events of Palm Sunday. We talked about how Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey and how the people greeted him by waving palm branches and shouting 'hosanna'. We then made our own palm branch as a reminder of Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem.
In Language Arts class, we reviewed our oral vocabulary words. We also read words with vowel variants and words with the suffixes -ful and -less. To help build our fluency and comprehension, we partner read a story from our decodable reader booklets. We also read a nonfiction piece about volunteers. After reading that story we completed pages in our Reading/Writing companion that focused on main idea and key details. In addition, we practiced identifying pronouns.
Also, in Language Arts class today, we learned about synonyms. We create 'synonym' rolls. On each roll is a synonym for the word big.
For our Living Stations today, we watched The Proud Tree, a short video about a boastful tree who becomes the cross Jesus dies on. After watching the video, we talked about how the tree had a change of heart and realized how much Jesus loves us to die on a cross for us.
In Math class today, we practiced subtracting without regrouping. We were flying through the problems!
We ended our day with Social Studies. Today we talked about buying, saving, and trading.
Have a great night!
