In reading, students learned to identify the main idea of a nonfiction text and isolate key details that support the main idea. We practiced this skill as a class after reading Schools Around the World. Students later read the Time for Kids article Sharing with Others and worked with partners to identify the main idea and key details.

In math, students learned about the complements of 10. Students played a Make a 10 game in groups to practice math fact fluency, and wrote two subtraction sentences to accompany each complement of 10.

For Fun Friday, students learned all about Chinese New Year. Sophie celebrates this holiday at home, so she shared some of her family's traditions with the class. Sophie likes to eat hot pot on this day, so she drew a diagram of what a hot pot looks like and explained to the class how it is eaten.

Students also created dragon lanterns to celebrate the holiday.

There are no extra pictures this week due to the shortened school week. Also, just a reminder that next Friday, February 7th is the 100th Day of School!
