Flower Gardens, Apples, Dessert tubs, and more!

Here is a review of our week: 
Phonics- We continued Jolly Phonics by learning the sounds for e & h. Our popcorn word this week was in. 

Handwriting- This week in handwriting we continued working on frog jump letters. We practiced B, R & N. 

Reading: We read a story called "Flower Garden" by Eve Bunting. Our vocabulary words this week were pedestrian, passenger, eager, and assortment. 

Next week we will start looking at poetry. Each student needs to bring in a 1/2 inch white binder with the clear slot in the front for a cover. If anyone is willing to donate a few extras that would be greatly appreciated as well.


During Daily 5 we continued practicing read to self for 10 minutes as well as our two other centers, word work and listen to reading.

Math- We continued practicing our counting. We worked on counting objects up to 10 in apple themed centers. When we finished a center early we went to a dessert tub. (Yes dessert!) The students found activities we had already completed as a class, but now could play independently. Each week our dessert tubs with change to allow students to practice previously learned skills.

Important Reminders:

Turn in your All About Me posters when finished for me to keep in a safe place until it is your child's turn to share.

Scholastic book orders are due September 30th.

Don't forget to turn in box tops! The class with the most box tops at the end of the year wins a class party.

Any questions?? Email me!

Have a wonderful weekend!
