Up Coming Events: Valentine’s Day and 100th Day of School Party.
Thursday February 14, 2019 we have a half day of school. Per school rule, the children are allowed to pass out valentine cards or small treat to their friends. We will be doing some fun heart learning activities too. Unfortunately, no big party.
After our Mid -Winter Break we will be celebrating our 100th day of school. More information to come on the counting activities that we will be doing in our classroom. Today we celebrated our 93rd day of school. We have been counting down from 90 to 100 by wearing a number badge everyday. We are excited for the BIG 100 DAY!
We are learning about two letter friends this week and the past. We are learning the letter and sound for Vv, Vinnie Volcano. Also, we have been learning a helping friend who helps us to make words Andy Apple Aa. He helps us to make “at” words. Keep practicing their book bags and word cards. The word and was introduced today nd a new book went home in their book bags.
We made snowman and practiced writing about our Snowman. It was fun watching them begin to write and sounding out words.
We have been busy testing with Reading and Math skills. A progress report hopefully will be sent home this week. The report will show some strengths and some areas to give a little extra practice.
In Leader in Me, we are discussing Habit 3 Putting First things First. We have been discussing why it is important to take care of the big rocks first then we can have fun with other things after.
In Math we have been practicing counting by 10s, 1s, 2s, 5s, also we have been practicing recognizing and writing our numbers. Also, we have been comparing different objects with size and weight.
I think that is all for now. Stay warm and Safe!
