Today we had a nice day! In reading we learned about our sound for the week. We are working on the long a sound with spelling it either -ai or -ay. We partner read the story "Kids Play!". That story was about kids playing all over the world. For grammar and writing this week, we are focusing on using our five senses: see, feel, taste, hear, and smell. In music we learned about Gustav the mole. After recess we had PE. Once we were back from PE we had science. We talked about insects and what is means to observe something. We also got our science journals all ready for when our mealworms arrive. We are all pretty excited to see these insects! We hope they come tomorrow! Math today was working on doubles. A double fact is when you add the same number together! Our day ended with seeing who could be the best detective. We searched books that we have read for -ai and -ay words. The person with the most words got a special prize! See you tomorrow, have a super night!
