This week our theme is Winter. We learned about all the other seasons as well! In writing this week, we spent a lot of time writing a narrative about our Winter Break. We took it very slow and made sure we added all the fun and exciting details! Next week, we will be introducing how to and opinion writing. We will also be digging into the book Snowy Day and learning about penguins! In Math we are focusing on 2-D shapes. We listed attributes and sang a song for each shape. Next week, we will be playing games with the shapes such as fill the hexagon and creating shapes using toothpicks and marshmallows. Next week we will also be rotating classrooms during our reading block for STAR reading. Basically, kids will be grouped with other students who read at or near their level. Some students will be staying in our room and others will be moving to a different classroom for reading time only.
Monday evening will be our Family Reading Night from 6:30-8:00. I hope to see you there! Book orders are going home today and are due on Tuesday, January 12th.
I think that's all for now! Have a wonderful, snowy weekend! :)
