Notes:
J The elementary has started Super Achiever awards. Last week we had our first Super Achiever in our class: Dol Deng. I have many super achievers in my class, however he was chosen because he picked up trash in the hallway on our way to recess.
J This week we will finish up our two week rotation of learning centers. Some of the centers that students enjoyed were: making candy canes with Fruit Loop patterns, using the smart board, decorating paper Christmas trees with the correct number of ornaments, and stamping their names with letter stamps.
Things to Work on:
JWe have started practicing to count by 10s. Please help your child with this at home.
J I have seen a big improvement in students who know their phone numbers! Keep working at home.
What we have been up to:
Reading:We read the book Harry the Dirty Dog and focused on clever, furiously, and disguise. In reading groups we introduced and practiced the sight words: did, to, an, you, get, and from. Pleas continue to practice these words at home. This week the letters J,E, and Z were introduced.
Math: This week in math we talked about maps and made a map of our classroom. Our math centers this week focused on problem solving, identifying shapes and counting.
Social Studies: We started talking about Iowa and some of the resources that we have in our state. We also talked about where we live, Storm Lake. We began our study on comparing Iowa and Laos. We will compare weather, resources, clothes, and much more.
