Puppy Pound
December 14, 2018
Buddies
We played a game called Gingerbread Squeeze with our buddies. We had to guess our partner's number with the only clue being higher or lower than the number we said. We moved the gingerbread man up and down the number line until we landed on the correct number.
Reading
Continuing nonfiction text, we had the children stop and share what they learned so far in the books that they were reading.
Math
We are reviewing for our end of unit 2 math test next week. It will be covering addition and subtraction within 20. I will try not to spill coffee on these--I make no promises!
Team building
Changing seats means making new table names to get to know the people at our table.
Reading
Book talks--since we are learning some very interesting information from our nonfiction texts, we had a walking and talking book talk. We walked then stopped and talked about our books, then repeat!
Phonics
Magic e makes the short vowel long. We had magic e wands and a magic e scoot and off we went! We used our wands to magically change the words: kit became kite, cub became cube.....
Top Dog
Mira was our top dog. Her favorite animal is a puppy and she loves to eat mac and cheese. She is pawsome at dancing and drawing. When she grows up she wants to be a dancer.
Doggy Bag
1. Last call for white socks and fabric markers.
2. Reading logs will be on nonfiction books.
