Here is a week in review.

 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, and stamps!

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.

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. In our math book station we made a book called "Math Dots" 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. In math this week we also made our own 10 black dot pictures. Students applied what we have been learning to their counting and pictures. They could pick any number of dots to make a picture with but had to write the number 1-10 and draw the picture. We made a class book out of these drawings to go in our class library.

Important Reminders
