Happy Track Out! I hope everyone has a restful and relaxing track out. I am encouraging everyone to read every night to help practice good reader strategies and comprehension.
Here is what you can focus on during track out:
Reading Focus--sight word practice, reading stories fluently and comprehension. We will specifically be working on written comprehension and story elements (characters, setting, problem and solution).
Writing Focus--writing using the words first, next, then and last. We have been working on opinion writing, which includes statement of your opinion, 3 reasons to support your opinion and restatement of your opinion. We have also been working on using correct capitalization and punctuation in our writing.
Math Focus--we continue to practice counting to 120, addition and subtraction to 20 and place value. We have been working on making 2 digit numbers using tens and ones and will begin comparing 2 digit numbers when we return from track out.
Social Studies/Science Focus--In social studies, we have spent time exploring other cultures and how they celebrate different holidays/traditions. In science, we will begin a unit on balance and motion when we return from track out.
