We started our day with a math (ten frame) activity. We then transitioned right to reading our AlphaTales book for our new letter of the week (Dd), Detective Dog and the Disappearing Donuts. Our new sight words of the week are: "for" and "you." We also guessed what was in our Alphabet can and our ABC can. Then we painted our handprints making really big tens frames for the 100th day of school. After that we went outside for recess, so thank you for sending warm clothes still, the wind is pretty chilly. After recess, we had our reading groups, where the kiddos worked reading our decodable book, blending sounds, ABC books (Dd), the sight word "for" page, and listening to a story. After groups, we went outside for recess. We ended our time together with a picture of each kiddo standing next to Abe Lincoln and a few minutes of Free Choice time.
Important Information:
1. Homework folders came home today (2-16-16).
2. The 100th Day of School is this Friday, February 19th! I did tell the kiddos they could make a 100 Day Shirt if they wanted to (someone brought up a shirt they'd seen on Pinterest.). No pressure, though!
3. If they haven't already, students need to fill their plastic 100 bag with 100 things and bring it back to school. Items that work well are buttons, legos, small marshmallows, stickers, beads, etc. Please help your child as they count and fill their bags with their chosen item.
4. Grandparents Day is March 18th from 8:15-9:00am for both AM and PM kinders!
Have a great evening!

Mrs. Wittwer
