READ- A - THON

The Read-a- thon is still going on! We have just kick started week 3. Book in a bags went home last night for the first time which are perfect books for your child to read for the read-a-thon. Be sure to log your minutes on the computer or the reading logs that have gone home.

If you are logging on the paper form, please make sure it is returned to school by the day the form says. If not, your child will not receive their keychain!

Happy Reading!!

P is for...

 

Learning about letter P was so much fun! We came  up with 62 different words that begin with P, read a new Pete the Cat story with lots of P words, and enjoyed Pirate Booty Popcorn while drawing PICTURES with PURPLE, PINK, PEACH and PENCILS! We are officially P experts!

Field Trips

Two field trips in two weeks?? We are so lucky! We enjoyed the Eric Carle show at the Palace Theater last week. Eric Carle is our latest unit of study in reading and writing. We got to watch four Eric Carle performances.

Yesterday we boarded a very special purple bus that drove us to the Ferguson Library. We got a tour of the library, read books, sang and danced!

Happy Birthday

Happy birthday to Sebastian who turned 5 on Saturday!!

We counted spiders on webs for 1:1 correspondence practice.

We used Halloween words with our sight words to build sentences!

We sorted and graphed Halloween fruit snacks! We used the terms greater than and less than to discuss our graphs.
