Labor Day is behind us. Mine was great. Hoping yours was, too.
This week we will be reading Grandfather's Journey by Allen Say. It is a story of immigration but also returning to one's roots. In the context of the story, we will also be discussing World War II and the dropping of the atomic bombs at Nagasaki and Hiroshima. We'll also read Bicycle Man, Mr Say's memories of seeing American soldiers for the first time after the war. Spelling words will have the sounds of /o/ and /i/. Grammar skills for this week are studying subjects and predicates.
Math: We are continuing to review addition and subtraction. We'll be solving problems with missing numbers in both types of problems.
History of Rexburg: We'll be talking about the failure of the Teton Dam and watching a video about it. We'll also learn about the number of Veterans who have served from Rexburg during past wars and conflicts and the Veterans Memorial at Smith Park.
It's going to be the best week ever! ;)
