Friday

Happy Friday!  We made it through a 5 day week!  In math, we did the workbook pages that go with the lesson that I did yesterday about standard form, expanded form and word form. We also made numbers by having digits and standing up in front of the class.

After PE and snack, we went outside for a movement break. We had morning meeting where we counted by 10's starting at 11.  We made it all the way to 201! In writing, I read a book about a famous author who had struggles with writing in her early years. We talked about how writing is hard work but very rewarding at the same time. In word work we read/sang "I Went to the Animal Fair" and identified rhyming words.

This afternoon, we began our unit on trees! We read a very informative book and talked a lot about trees and what they give us and how good they are! Students made a flip book with the parts of a tree: the crown, the trunk and the roots. Mrs. Crouch came to read us a book about math too.

One very important paper went home today about the Artist in Residence program.  To go with the program, students are being offered T-shirts to wear for the actual photograph.  The order forms for these shirts are due by Tuesday so there is bit of a rush order on that. Let me know if you have any questions. Mr. Chamberlin sent an email out about this sometime during the week.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
