What a good Monday!
We started with
calendar and learned what our new jobs for the week are. Then we did our
daily math warm up followed by our language arts lesson. We are working
with main idea and supporting details. I read a few short stories to
the boys and girls and they had to give me the main idea and details.
Then we took a spelling test. If they got all 10 words correct they will
only test on the challenge words on Friday.
In language arts we are also working with long vowel sounds.
We talked about the bossy e, and how it always yells at letters to say
their name (you might see the boys and girls circled the 'e's on their
spelling test and drew a line towards the letter it is bossing around).
We did centers where we practiced our spelling words using
first our dominate hand, then writing them with our other hand! We wrote
a letter to our star student, and worked with the teacher in small
group.
After lunch we started Unit 2 in Social Studies. This unit is about
places and regions. Today we discussed the vocab for the chapter-natural resources, continent, climate, and landform.
We had PE and library, then we did a math lesson on Make-a-Ten.
We finished with read aloud and Silent Ball :)
