The First 9 Weeks
Ms. Minyard's Class
Math
Math has been super fun these first few weeks! We played a lot of math games and worked really hard on making equations and word problems!
BUBBLE LAB!
We had a great time during bubble lab! Thank you SO much if you came to volunteer! The students and I had a wonderful time. Here are a few of my favorite pictures! If you'd like to see more email me.
Writing
I've been blown away with some of your kiddos writing! In just the short amount of time we've been together I've seen huge progress. We are making our stories have a beginning, middle, and end. We also published our first story! I'd like to keep these in my files but if you'd like a copy of your student story (or you promise you'll send it back) email me and let me know! :)

Guided Reading
I'm sure you've started to see those little books inside your students red folder. Those are their guided reading books. They are picked out to be at an "instructional" level for you child. This means that they might still need you to guide them through the book. Our goal if for them to be able to read the books fluently and comprehend questions asked about the book. When you listen to your kid read the book please date and initial the sticky note that is on the front. If you have any questions about guided reading please let me know.
