This has been such a special week. Thank you for the posters, fruit and other treats. The posters and letters were so heartfelt and made me cry. The children put so much of themselves into them. Thanks for helping them!
A new sight word list is going home today.
We are busy adding and subtracting. I told that children that they could use a number of strategies to help them. They can draw a number line to 20 on their paper, use manipulatives or count on or back.
We just finished our unit on shelters. We read the original 3 Little Pigs and watched a reading of The 3 Javellinas on You Tube. Then each group got different materials to build a piggie shelter and the wolves, our puppets, tried to blow the shelters down. Ask your child what happened!
The children wrote opinion pieces about which Henry and Mudge book by Cynthia Rylant was the best. They worked very hard on these and were eager to share with their classmates.
Please send in a mis-matched sock. We will use it to erase when we use the white boards.
Thanks again for a great week!
