What a fun week we're having reading and talking about our VIC's (VERY IMPORTANT CHARACTERS) While reading, we are trying to LISTEN to what they say and WATCH what they do so we can better understand them -just like friends! We're describing how their feelings change, guess what they might be thinking and even ask questions to see what they might say-if they could talk to us.
We're using lots of strategies to solve addition and subtraction problems-number line, think addition, make a 10 and counting on or back. We're getting away from circle drawings and fingers and trying to use brain power!! Look under the 'FOR PARENTS' tab for video links to the strategies.
Are we changing the way you think when you read our letters? We hope so! This week we learned to use an example or mini moment to support our thoughts.
