We talked about the sounds they make, brainstormed things that begin with each letter, and spent time practicing the proper formation of each letter. These letters will show up on next week\u2019s homework for a handwriting review.<\/p>\n Reading\/Writing: <\/strong>This week we continued practicing components of our Daily 5 curriculum. The children are building stamina during our rotation for \u201cRead to Self\u201d and \u201cword work.\u201d \u00a0\u00a0Wednesday the children did EXCELLENT during our Daily 5 rotation. I am so proud of the growth they are making! We focused on reading comprehension this week and how to retell the story. The children worked on retelling stories using the beginning, middle, and end of the story. We also discussed the problem and solutions in the stories we read and made our own predictions about how we thought the main characters were going to try to fix the problem in the story.<\/p>\n Math: <\/strong>We continue to work with numbers 0 \u2013 20 using different manipulatives during Math Workshop\/Center time. The children are having fun putting the numbers in order, comparing numbers (larger\/smaller), and counting out correct quantities.<\/p>\n During our skeleton centers on Thursday, the children were able to work with numbers 1 \u2013 30 to count sequentially and follow the dot-to-dots in order to reveal the picture. The children also sorted and graphed Bag of Bones Cheetos Puffs. <\/strong>After they were done with sorting and graphing they were able to eat the Cheetos! The children did great with graphing the Cheetos and seem to be understanding how to read a graph as well.<\/p>\n Social Studies: <\/strong>We continue to read books about being a good friend and following the rules. \u00a0We review our classroom rules daily and I always remind the children of what my expectations are for every activity throughout the day. Some of the children are quite strict about the rules and are trying to take over my job as teacher! I try to remind the children to worry about themselves, and I will look after everyone else!<\/p>\n
