working on informative writing for the next several weeks. We will work on the
vowel team ea/ee in our word work. We will continue to
learn about weather. Our focus will still be on the clouds and recording the
weather in our journal. I will share the book Snowflake Bentley. We will share
traits that made him a leader. We will read Hooway for Wodney Wat. This book will be
discussed at our All School Meeting on Friday. The students will think about
what it means to advocate for yourself. We will be looking for examples in the
book that show Rodney advocating for himself.

working hard to use rounding to estimate. Students will be using estimation to
check work to see if the answers are reasonable.
