We had a great day, we are trying to work on our talking in class and cleaning up faster.  I hope everyone had a fantastic restful weekend?  I was excited to get back in to reading groups and communication with the text.  We are working on main idea of a story and short passage.  We are also trying to figure out the difference between a main idea and summary.  We began discussing this today while they are reading at home you could help them.  In writing we are continuing to discuss poems, we reviewed the couplet and all poems thus far.  Have them explain some?  Then we moved into math and reviewed addition and subtraction without regrouping.  We will begin our two digit addition and subtraction with regrouping tomorrow.  In spelling we worked on words which have the friend in them and /ight/ words.  Have fun studying.
