Reading = We are going to spend the first couple days of the week on Connections.  Team Meyer is excited to read Song and Dance Man.  Then we will move into our next unit within reading which is taking a look at Text Features.  Together we will explore expository text features with the text = Digging Up Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Writing = I hope everyone enjoyed Team Meyer's Open House letters this week.  This week we will continue to explore pre-writing techniques through pattern books, alphabet books, and poems.  Late in the week, we will move to hearing and discussing factual and nonfiction writing to go along with our Reading focus.  

Math = We are wrapping up Chapter 2.  On Friday, we began to review and on Monday we will continue to do so.  The Chapter 2 test is tentative for testing Team Meyer this Tuesday.  Some helpful review videos are below and give some great reminders.
