Happy Last Week

THE LAST WEEK OF SCHOOL!!!!

Morning Meeting....
Counting to our next 10's cloud. We have been in school 170 days and we can count to 170! By 10's too! Then we did our morning chart activity.  The activity was to find a book with the word "is" in it. Trickier than they thought it would be to find books. We then went around in circle and all the kids read a sentence from the book they found that had the word "is." Great job kids!!!!!!
We also went around the room and shared "What's the News!"

Rock, Paper, Scissors, Shoe! We played this as part of our morning greetings. You change partners after each time you play.

Finger flashes! Always good practice. I love how far these kids have come since the beginning of the year!

Book Corner....

Big Pig On A Dig by Phil Roxbee-Cox  "Big pig finds a treasure map and decides to dig for gold at the spot marked with an "X" on the map. A little yellow duck may be found on each page. "

Goose on the Loose by Pill Roxbee-Cox. "Created in consultation with a language expert, this entertaining phonics reader is specially written to help children learn to read."

What Teachers Can't Do by Douglas Wood. "There are lots of things that regular people can do, but teachers can't. Teachers can't ride a bike or scooter to school. And they can never be tardy. Teachers can't buy their own apples. And they can't teach their best without flowers on their desk. But first they really need some help cleaning the blackboard. And the erasers! It's a wonder they come back to school at all!"

Math....
We continue to keep in routine and master our counting skills. We have had some cut and paste numbers in the correct order and we also help grow the caterpillar

ECHO Science Center Field Trip....
Thank you parents who came on the field trip with us. I hope you all had fun. We sure did! Here are a few pictures I was able to capture. Sorry I didn't get more, couldn't be with all the groups.

Thanks for sharing your child with us. We had a wonderful year with this class. Looking forward to seeing them at recess or lunch or in passing through the halls. Have a fabulous summer!!!
