Math
Please practice counting by 1’s, 5’s, 10’s to 100, by 2’s to 20 and backward from 20 with your child. Once our class can skip count by 1's, 5's, 10's, and 2's we will have an ice cream party to celebrate our counting!
Writing
The students wrote valentines this week to their family members at literacy centers. They wrote about how to make valentines cookies using sequencing words. We wrote an informational writing piece on what we learned about penguins and are continuing to work on using colorful language in our narrative writing.
