Weekly Review October 3rd

Here is a week in review.

Phonics
 Our sounds of the week: /r/ and /m/
Sounds we know: /s/, /a/, /t/,  /i/ /p/, /n/, /c/ , /k/, /e/, and /h/

 Popcorn Words
 This week we learned: like and up
Words we know: a, I, it, in, see, big, my

This week during daily 5 we had a chance everyday to work on our popcorn words. These words were practiced using play dough, wikki sticks, snap cubes, stamps, and magna doodle boards!

Handwriting

In handwriting this week we practiced the capital and lowercase letter Tt.

Reading

During our reading time we read the book Miss Bindergarten Takes a Field Trip with Kindergarten. This story was about a kindergarten class that went on a field trip around the community. They got to see the post office, a bakery, fire station, and a park. The students talked about the places they would like to visit in their community and we started our own book called Me on the Map (connecting back to our book from week 1). 

Math

This week we practiced math problems while comparing and ordering numbers 0-5. This week practiced these math skills in our weekly centers. We focused on these numbers using stamps at our stamping station. We also had to count on to the next number, for example if the first number was 1 we had to find the card with the 2. This was our trickiest center this week. We also practiced counting the amount of "bubbles" on a card around the room. In our math book station we made a book called "My Number Book" Inside of our books we practiced writing the numbers and counting the same amount. If you notice any worksheets coming home unfinished this is because the students are not expected to finish a recording sheet as long as they were working at the center the whole time.
