Thursday!

Today was a great Thursday!  We started the day with making our "O" hats.  We then did our Calendar and Daily Message routine.  Today is day number 80!  We are working on spelling the word "friends" and "is" in our Daily News.  We then had indoor recess due to the wet and slick blacktop.  After recess, we had reading groups focusing on phoneme isolation, the /o/ sound and we read our readers.  Students are doing a great job at starting to attack words they don't know to sound them out.  Students also worked on writing sight word sentences, reading and coloring their short "o" book and listening to the story "Bad Guys Get Cookie."  After reading groups we played a fun math game with our elbow partners working on "greater" or "less."  Each partner rolled a die, wrote their number and then circled the number that was greater!  Students had a great time rolling their die with their partner!


 Reminders:
1) Tomorrow Homework Folders and Library books are due.
2) Friday, February 12th will be our Valentine's Day Party.  More information and class lists will be coming home soon for students to write out valentines to all classmates.
3) RAZ Kids and IXL are online for all kiddos to do and practice at home.
4) The 100th day of school is February 19th!  We will have a little celebration and some fun 100th day activities!
5) Grandparents day is March 18th from 8-9am for AM and PM kinders!

Have a great evening!
~Love,
Mrs. Wittwer
