Writing Wednesday

WE LOVE THE SNOW!!!!!

Making snowmen.

And snow chairs.

PLEASE make sure your kids come to school with appropriate outside clothing. Mittens, hats, snow pants, boots, jackets. 

We did some more partner reading in Language Arts today.  This time we took books that had the same titles or same author, etc. I took a few pictures of some of the books we used. Partners each had a book and they talked about what the "similarities" were between the two books.  

Mazie and Maddie, Molly and Ryder talking about what they see similar with the two books. Talking about characters, the setting of the story, etc. 

Writing Wednesday! We read the book Splat the Cat and the Snowy Day Surprise  by Rob Scotton. Its about a really cool cat named Splat who wakes up to learn he has a snow day. He is super excited about all the fun he can have with Seymour.
After we read the story, we worked on our own writing piece. Kids had to draw a picture that referenced a part of the book, then write about it. We are working on writing neatly, sounding out our words and adding details to our pictures.



Kids working very hard during our writing time........

We are in need of snacks to share with the class. If you can send some in that would be greatly appreciated.
