Sorry for the delay in blogging. We have been very busy getting back in the routine.
We have also been doing our midyear assessments. Progress reports will come home a week from Friday.
Language Arts:
We have been doing word sorts in the classroom. The children are getting good at them, you have probably seen some of the papers come home. I will be sending some of them home in a game format and the children may keep them at home.
We have worked on lowercase c, o, s, v, w, l, & a during the past few weeks.We also worked with the words it, to & can. We have practiced them many ways and reviewed the other sight words at the same time.
Math:
The children wrote their numerals 1-20 as part of a math assessment. Our calendar work is providing us with a lot of practice with our numerals. We are also practicing counting to 70. We have started with addition and subtraction.The children like it best when I tell a story to go along with the math problem.
Art:
We made valentines for our soldiers overseas. The children really enjoyed this.
Social Studies:
We talked about Martin Luther King Jr. and what made him important. We also made peace doves and talked about our dreams for a better world.
