We started our day with a Dr. Seuss activity page! Then we worked on a math fluency activity, making seven! Students had to add carefully to make seven. We then did our calendar and Daily News routine. We attempted to go outside, but the rain started right away, so we had to have an indoor recess. :) After that, we transitioned to reading groups, where the kiddos worked on decoding, identifying where the /e/ sound was in different words, words that rhyme with all and cup, our sight word "do", and listening (The Rain Came Down by David Shannon). The students then gathered at the calendar rug to listen to our anthology story (Frog and Locust). Speaking and listening is an important skill, but also, it's a very large piece of the SBA testing that starts in third grade. Lastly, we celebrated a couple birthdays today with a Royal Reader in the both the AM and PM classes!
Reminders:
1. Homework folders are due tomorrow (3-4-16).
2. We have P.E. and music tomorrow.
3. We have fourth grade buddies tomorrow! Hooray!
4. Jump Rope for Heart money is due tomorrow.
5. Grandparents Day is March 18th from 8:15-9:00am for both AM and PM kinders!
6. With the spring weather, please make sure your child has layers so that we can go outside. We still need coats and hoods, so we can go outside to play. Thanks!
Have a great evening!
~Love,
