What We Usually Do
We usually read and write and write true stories. We do read books. We read and write "how-to books" like brush our teeth and how to pour cereal. We like to do math and science.
Math
Mrs. Gardiner tell us about math so that we can know different types of numbers. She tells us about shapes so we can know many different types of shapes. We also play games so we don't get bored anymore. We make shapes with playdough and hunt for shapes. Our goals in math are addition and subtraction. We add to make numbers and we subtract to make numbers. There are different types of addition and subtraction problems that can be tricky.
Reading
There is interesting stuff. We read interesting stuff on Epic about shapes. I read two twisting ending books. The books were on Epic. There are cool books.
Phonics
We are learning about writing letters and we know all the letters now. Like B, Y, M, A, T, O. We learned how to write sentences and words. We know blends like bl say "bl". We learned digraph. "Sh" like shell and "th" like the.
Writing
Mrs. Gardiner is teaching us about math, reading, snap words, and she is very kind. We have learned a lot about snap words and reading. We write sentences about our weekend news. We know a lot about sentences and we are avid readers. She is so helpful and we have persistence power! We also have pointer power.
