Last week in Reading, we read the story “The Little Engine That Could” and discussed the types of work that trains do. We learned all about the letter Vv and the plot of a story.

This week, we will be reading the story “On the Move” and learning how people in different parts of the world travel. We will be learning about the letter Zz! We will focus on the main idea of a story.

Last week in Math, we practiced decomposing numbers 11-19.

This week, we will be tested on decomposing numbers to 19 and we will start our topic on Measurement: Comparing length, height, weight, and capacity.

In Science, we are continuing our chapter on Living and Nonliving Things.
