This week we continued to work on color words. Some of the stories we read were How The Birds Got Their Colors, The Falling Leaves, The Biggest Leaf Pile, and Let It Fall. Our new popcorn word was big. During handwriting we practiced printing two more frog jump capitals...R & N. Now that the students have learned 13 letter sounds, we have had a lot of fun making words on our Jolly Phonics for the White board program. In math we have continued to create and extend simple patterns. The students learned a fun Macarena Dance for the months of the year during calendar time. They love doing it! The weather was perfect for outdoor recess this week. The students also had computers, library and gym. Chloe did a great job as student of the week. She explained her poster to the class, shared her show & tell and invited her grandma to read to the class. Her classmates did such a nice job on her Superstar book too. Enjoy your long weekend!
