Here are the highlights from our week!
Monday-In writing, we wrote our November writing. Students thought about things they are thankful for. We came up with amazing ideas like our family, friends, and food! In math, we order numbers 1-20 and played our build it game using ten frames. At the end of the day, students practiced filling each other's buckets by playing with someone new. Students had a great time interacting with new friends from our classroom.
Tuesday-Mrs. Joyner visited our room today for our guidance lesson. She talked about ways to fill each other's buckets. We also had laptop day and visited Raz Kids. Students are also working hard on their word study. Students are learning their word families as well as their letters and sounds. For Veterans' Day, we wrote notes to Veterans. These notes will be hand delivered to a Naval homecoming by one of our Crozet teachers this weekend!
Thursday-In writing, we read I Went Walking by Sue Williams. This book discusses how a little girl went on a walk and the things she saw. As a class, we went on a walk around our school to notice things we saw. When we came back to the room, we generated a list of the things we saw. What a fun walk! We also visited the Wonder Lounge to explore reading and math apps.
Friday-In reading groups today, we read Let's Find Out. We also assessed sight words. We would like students to be able to automatically say the sight words. They are doing a great job! Our book buddies also visited our classroom to read! We love when our buddies visit us.
