This week in Reading, we read the story “Trucks Roll” and discussed types of transportation that help people to do their jobs. We learned all about the letter Uu and the United States. All of the students did an excellent job presenting their state projects to the class.

Next week, we will be reading the story “The Little Engine That Could” and learning about what kind of work trains do. We will focus on the plot of a story. We will also be doing some fun Spring/Easter activities!

This week in Math, we began our topic on composing and decomposing numbers to 10. We discussed different ways to make a number. For example, we can break up 6 counters into a group of 4 and a group of 2. We can also break it up into a group of 3 and a group of 3. Students have been doing a super job!

Next week, we will continue our topic on composing and decomposing numbers.
