This week we have had so much fun with the different color days! I am excited to say that we have had almost 100% participation! :) I look forward to seeing the rainbow continue next week. The students are learning to spell each color word and we are using them during our "Word Work" time in Daily 5.
Speaking of Daily 5, I introduced "Word Work" this week and the students LOVED it! This is the time during reading that they get to use different materials to build words. Our words this week were: I, the. We also learned yes, no after reading No! David, by David Shannon. If you have never read those books you should really check them out!
In Math this week we worked on the number 5. We also did some ordering numbers and graphing our favorite
In writing we "published" another class book called, Not at School! We are also working on labeling our pictures and stretching out the sounds in the word to write. They are doing such a great job of sounding out the words and hearing all the sounds in the word. Several are using resources such as our alphabet chart to help them spell.
Thank you to those of you who have donated to our "Inquiry Table." The kidos are super excited about observing them and using our 5 senses to explore the objects brought in.
We also learned how to use glue and scissors. THAT WAS FUN! :)
Next week is going to be a little different because the students will have their 1st substitute on Monday afternoon. I have to take my girls to the dentist. Also on Friday I will be gone all day to a district curriculum meeting. I apologize for being gone twice in one week, it just kind of fell that way. Please know that I will still be available for communication both days. If you have transportation changes on those two days please let the office know.
