Wednesday!

Today was a great day!  We started by working on counting one less and one more than Mrs. Wittwer.  Then finished a fluency practice where students are counting and circling the correct number, then we checked our answers.  When we say fluency, the purpose is to carefully count, not to go fast, but take all the time we need.  Then we read our Message of the Day, did Calendar and our Daily News.   Today we went outside during AM and PM classes for recess!  The students loved getting outside and running around.  We then had reading groups focusing on our letter of the week, Ff and our sight word "play."  Today, we read our leveled readers, played a blending game, practiced writing our sight word, writing and counting different ways to get to six and listened to "There Was An Old Martian Who Swallowed The Moon."  In the AM class, we used shapes to create a mystery monster and in the PM class we had a Royal Reader celebrating Avery!
