Picture day

Morning Meeting....
We reviewed the chart. Today the task was to answer the question, "Does the Earth move?"  EVERYONE answered on the "yes" side.  We practiced counting how many days of school we have had.  We are up to 21 days!  We also practiced reading sentences on the chart.
We sang our Days of the Week song again, (multiple times, by popular request).





PICTURE DAY! We had our pictures done by Ember Photography today. Brian was awesome with all the kids. Say cheese!!!  Everyone was looking amazing.



Math....
We worked on dot flashes again. We played a game with unifix cubes. Each partner had a 5 stack, one person would hold and snap the stack in their hands, then show their partner part of the snapped stack, and the other person had to say how many were missing to complete the 5 stack. We worked on a number 5 sheet, which was lots of practice writing 5 correctly.

Language Arts....
We had "letter leaders" review the letters we have learned so far. Each leader had to say the letter name, picture clue and the sound of each letter and the rest of the class echoed what our letter leader said.

Then we practiced making letters with special block pieces.  Sometimes we made a letter by ourselves and sometimes we worked as a team to build the letter.

Writing....
We have started working on writing with our class.  Today kids drew pictures and then they wrote the first letter that they could hear in the word.  For example if you drew a picture of a fish then you would write the letter F next to your picture!  They all did a great job with this!
