Reading Workshop: This week we continued to work on building good habits. We Worked on selecting a perfect spot to read in, how to make a movie in our mind of a book, and how to hold on to the movie in our mind. We also got to learn the “I PICK” song when we learned how to pick out just right books, and we were able to pick new books for our books boxes.
Writing Workshop: We continued working on our small moment stories. We read the book, “Ralph Tells a Story” to learn how to think of topics to write about. We learned the importance of including pictures and words that go together when we read the book, “Roller Coaster.” We learned that we can draw even hard to draw pictures. Ask your child about the book “Ish” and what an “ish” drawing is.
Math: We finished learning our number partners through 10. We learned two songs about ten: one called, “Count by Tens,” and the other was a chant for partners of 10. We also made partners of 10 bracelets. Thank you for supporting your child with homework and returning it each time. Next week we will review the unit, take our unit 1 test, and take an online math assessment.
7 Traits of Happy Kids: This week we learned about 3 more traits:
4. Think win-win. (Everyone can win!)
5. Seek first to understand. (Listen then talk - ask our child about playing telephone!)
6. Synergize. (Together is better.)
For your children!
