Our new letter of the week is Ff, and our new sight word is "play." Today we started the day with reading our Alpha Tales book, Fifi Ferret's Flute. All about how Fifi and her friends try to save her flute from the river! We then worked on solving puzzles, did our picture guess for the letter Ff, Calendar and Daily News! We read the non-fiction book, Animal Babies ABC. This book is a wonderful non-fiction about different animal babies and a few facts about them. We worked on writing a sentence all on our own today using the sight word "love." The students writing turned out really nice. They did a great job sounding out words they were trying to write and using the alphabet chart! The morning class was able to do our math lesson of the day and a few minutes of Free Choice. The math lesson focuses on counting and telling which number of objects is less and more. The PM class had Library Checkout and will catch up on math tomorrow. Mrs. Pitts came today and we learned some great ways to get someone else's attention when we need it. If a student needs help or forgot what they are suppose to be doing they can quietly ask their neighbor, "Excuse me, can you remind me what we are doing?" Or if they need my attention when I am helping someone else or teaching under the document camera, "Excuse me, I need help when you are done Mrs. Wittwer." We taught them, first you say "Excuse me," then you say what you need.
