The Sneak Peek
Dec.3rd, 2018
Holiday Shop
Our class will be going to the holiday shop during our encore time (1:20 pm) on Thursday. Please hang on to your child's envelope / money until that date if possible. If your child will not be at school Thursday please let me know and we will accommodate.
Class Needs
As part of our economics unit we are setting up fun holiday themed factories! In our classroom children will be making the above snowman ornaments. Your child will select which factory they want to go to! For this project I need the following items:
small buttons
Just in Case Cubby
Each year I like to create a 'just in case cubby'. In this cubby I keep gloves, scarves, jackets or hoodies. Nothing fancy but just in case a little one forgets to bundle up we will have something here at school. I like to take them outside for fresh air, however, we do have limitations in regards to freezing temperatures.
Class Curriculum
Writer's Workshop - Many of the children are publishing their first How-To books. We continue to learn author's craft as we use comparisons and consider audience.
Math Workshop - We continue to work with double digit addition and subtraction. There is a large focus on word problems. Children have been introduced to many different strategies and are able to use their favorite to problem solve. Children are presented with a variety of word problems. Check out the resources to learn more.
