When I look at the top left card, I might see 2 and 2 and 1 dots or I might see 4 and 1, etc. After how many dots, we listened to the fable, "Country Mouse and City Mouse." The lesson we learned is that we should be happy with what we have! We then enjoyed a recess outside in the fresh air! After recess, we had reading groups. At reading groups we worked on listening for the S sound in a word, either at the end or beginning of a word. We then read our readers, counted the dots on a 10's frame and wrote the number. We worked on writing the letter S and also listened to the story "Goldilocks Has the Chicken Pox." When we were done with reading groups, our math lesson was working on "less." Students did a great job giving me their best effort!
Reminders:
1) Tomorrow is the Take Home Book Exchange!
Options for the Take Home Book Exchange:
1. If your child needs more practice with this book, return the book in the envelope so I can check off that you have that book.2. If the book was at an appropriate level of difficulty, but you are done with this book write on a sticky note: New Book
3. If your child could read this book in the first sitting and they know all the words, write on a sticky note: New Level.
**If a book doesn't have a sticky note, it doesn't get exchanged, just checked off.
2) Please send your child to school with a coat! We will still go outside even though it is getting colder!
3) Our Halloween party is Friday! 10/30/15 from 9:50-10:45 (am) and 2:00-2:55 (pm). Also, kinders must wear their costumes to school. Costumes should NOT be scary (no blood, guts, etc.) and NOT include any sort of weapons. If you have specific questions about your child's costume, please feel free to email me.
4) Friday: Homework is due! We will still have all of our specialist on Friday, so please be sure your child still wears their tennis shoes! Thank you!!
Have a great night!
