Our First Week of 2016!

Happy New Year! We kicked off our year with a jam packed week! We wrote new year's resolutions for 2016. The tots had ambition goals such as, learning how to make sushi, and playing the harmonica!

 We began our Author Study Unit on Eric Carle. All of my tots LOVE the stories and are so excited to read them. We read, Do you Want to be My Friend and The Grouchy Ladybug. We worked on making personal connections to stories, and wrote about a time we felt grouchy.

In math, we continued to work on those tricky teen numbers and addition. Next week I will introduce the number line, and we will use it to add and subtract.

We began our week with Christian's 6th birthday and ended our week with Sakyra's birthday! 

Ashley was our Celebrity of the Week! She brought in her snuggly dolphin stuffed animal named, Dolphie that she got in Bermuda! 

Lastly, the frigid temperatures this week kicked off our topic on winter! We wrote about things we like to do in the winter, and made snowmen today. 

Looking ahead…

Next week's sight words: he, she **I will send home an updated list of sight words we have done so far, and how many your child knows. Please keep practicing these at home. The more sight words they know, the more fluent they will become in their reading.**

No School Monday, January 18th- Martin Luther King Day

If your child has gone home in their extra set of clothes, please return them to school. Many students do not have back up clothes in case of an accident.

If you see this journal at staples or walmart, please send one in for your child. We are transitioning from our drawing journal to a journal with lines. Mrs Cooper was generous enough to donate some, but we are still short.

Have a wonderful weekend and check back next week for more updates from Room 202!
