Terrific Tuesday!!

What a terrific day we had today!  It seemed to fly by as we learned about the letters G and H today, including all the sounds they make!  We learned about our Happy Campers of the day, Hayden K. and Brandon and what some of their favorite things are!

Some more big news of today is that we started reading groups!  Wow!  This was fun!  We had four different rotations and I have to say I am so proud of each group as they rotated!  You would have thought we have been doing it all year long!  Thank you to Mrs. Bailey and Mrs. Monk for helping us at the Raccoon table where we worked on the sight word I!  You did such a great job with each group!  At my table we worked some more on the sight word I as well as text features of a book.  The students also got to work with Ms. Dody and listen to the book on cd "Bear Gets Scared."

Such a fun day today!  Remember to do that homework!  Read the book and write that sentence.  Great job parents on not telling them how to spell a word correctly, but helping them to sound it out and letting them write down what they hear!  Remember this is the beginning of the writing process! Praise them because they are trying their very hardest for you and me!  You are doing an amazing job!  Thank you for all your emails!  I LOVE hearing how the homework is going!

Happy Trails! 
~Love, 
Mrs. Wittwer
