We cannot believe the first couple of months of the school year have come and gone! The students continue to learn new things every day and remain working hard in the classroom. This week the students were introduced to a couple new units. For word study, the students received a lesson on ABC order. This unit allows exploration with object baskets and other works on the shelf along with children practicing putting words in alphabetical order. This unit is often enjoyable for students and enables them to better prepare themselves for when they do dictionary work.
Aside from ABC order, the students have been presented with a new geography unit. This unit pertains to biomes. With the biome unit, students will discover the different climate zones along with the many types of biomes. These biomes including, desert, temperate forest, tropical rainforest, ocean, tundra, grassland, etc. The biome unit is a popular one for most children at the lower elementary level and provides them with the opportunity to explore the world around them even more!
We wish you all a wonderful weekend!
