Our story of the week was "Officer and Buckle and Gloria" by Peggy Rathman. Our new vocabulary words included: tip, buddy, attention, accident, obeys, and enormous. While we read the story, we looked carefully at the illustrations and noticed that they can help us better comprehend what is happening in the text. There was often additional information in the pictures that was not found in the text. We connected this to nonfiction material as well. In nonfiction articles we will often find pictures, photographs, and charts that have captions or labels that add to what we are reading!
In our grammar lessons this week, the children practiced "present tense" verbs. We noticed that in the present tense, when the subject is singular, the verb will often end in 's." When the subject is plural, the verb will not change!
