We have had a super busy week. We have been learning about the seasons and types of weather. The students worked with partners to create season posters. We also drew pictures of different kids of weather. Today we listened to a thunderstorm and ready a book about a little girls afraid of thunder. Her grandma made thunder cake with her and she wasn't afraid anymore. We made thunder cake in class. It was delicious. Next week we will focus on types of precipitation.
In math we will be moving from graphing into numbers and place value. We will be showing numbers in many ways including using base ten blocks. Practicing counting by tens this weekend will really help!
We introduced 2 more activities in out Daily 5. We did words work and partner reading. The students loved both!
All of the students turned in their homework this week. Yippie! Just a few clarifications.... 1 spelling activity must be completed each day. The activities can be found in the front cover of their homework notebook. These activities will remain the same for the 9 weeks. Then we will trade them out. Their words can be found in their agenda in their GATOR book as well as on the top of the math sheet in their homework journal. They will have 10 new words for practice each week.
