THANK YOU FOR THE CONTINUED DONATIONS FOR OUR VALENTINE CELEBRATIONS.

I LOVE OUR YOUNG FIVE’S FAMILIES!

News and Information:

2/17-2/21 Winter Break

What We Did This Week:

ELA:

Our new sight word is “we”

We worked in small groups. Each student should have some emergent readers in their reading bag to practice reading (with our new words). When students are reading please remind them to use their “reading finger”, and use the picture to help them decode unknown words.  We are also learning to check the beginning sound of an unknown word.

Students should also have a “ring of words” in their reading bag. We will add to this as they learn new words.

Reading the alphabet chart and “bouncing” on the letter sounds is also good daily practice.

We have introduced last names as daily practice in class. You can practice this at home too!

Writing:

We wrote narrative stories in our journals about our families using our new words “We like to….” or “We like to go to….”

Math:

We continue to study counting by tens and writing teen numbers.

We used m&m’s to practice breaking apart 5 using a number bond.

Science:

We watched a Mystery Science lesson about our “hearts” in celebration of Valentine’s Day.
