We have been very busy in Room 24!!!
The children learned about Martin Luther King, Jr. and discussed their dreams for the world. Their writing and pictures are displayed outside our classroom.
I have been testing the children on counting to 100, our mid year math assessment and generating rhymes. The children should be able to count to 100 without prompts by the end of the year. They have made tremendous progress in writing numbers to 20! Please continue to work on number identification to 30. Also, review the shapes hexagon and rhombus. We will be working on that in class as well.
Continue to practice sight words and read nightly. This is the key to reading success!
This coming week we will begin non-fiction writing. We will start this unit by exploring penguins and making a class book of penguin facts. The children will all have the opportunity in the next coming months to write a non-fiction book on an animal of their choice. We will continue exploring properties of matter by conducting sink and float experiments and magnetic experiments. The children will also practice writing the letters Mm and Nn. Please hand in any homework by Friday.
As always, thank you for your continued support.
