Today we had a great Tuesday! We started out with creating our big gift to you! Students did a great job following detailed directions. Then we did our Calendar and Daily News routine, counting all the way up to 64! Then we bundled up and went outside for recess. After recess, we had Reading groups, focusing on our new letter of the week, Nn. Our new sight word is “to.” We worked on blending with the sound, which is sometimes hard to decipher if it is a /m/ sound or /n/ sound. We also worked on writing the sounds and segmenting the sounds we hear in a word. After reading groups, we had a Royal Reader for Mrs. Snider with both classes! It was a great way to end our day.
Homework folders came home today if they did not come home yesterday. I have been down with the stomach flu, so things got a little off schedule yesterday and today.
This Thursday we are going to have our Winter Party in the AM class from 9:15-10:15 and in the PM class from 12:45-1:45. Then we are going to finish strong with our Reading Groups for the week on Thursday.
PJ day this Friday! This Friday is a normal PE and Music specialists day so students will still need their PE shoes, but we get to watch a holiday movie (A Muppet Christmas Carol) in our jammies and eat the school’s delicious popcorn. **My one request is for students to not bring their most beloved toy or stuffed animal this Friday, just in case it gets left here over break, that would be really sad. Students are allowed to bring one pillow pet or stuffed animal, etc.
Have a great night!
~Love,
Mrs. Wittwer
