Math Workshop

The following are some of the math station this week. We have also been going on shape walks looking for 3 D shapes. We have been looking for shapes that are spheres, cubes, cylinders and cones. Your child will be bringing home a sheet on Monday to record 3 D Shape in your home. Next week we will be starting a new math unit called Addition, Subtraction, and the Number system.

Writing Workshop Stories Part One

Everyone wants to share their writing workshop stories! This week everyone could pick one story they wanted to share from their folder. We practice reading our stories to friends. We hope you enjoy. On some of the stories you may not see all the word because we have been using Spider Legs. Ask you child what a Spider Leg is?? This is half of the class. On Monday I will post the second half.


I loved the Leprechaun stories and asked for those stories to be shared!!
We plan to send them to 1M I know Mrs. Mead's Class will LOVE them!!!!

Pebble or Rock???

We have been talking a lot about words that are pebbles and words that are ROCKS. A word that is a pebble does not tip the scale like a rock. Rocks are strong and have muscle!!!! You can see our list below of some words that are pebbles and Rocks. We found rocks outside our classroom and decorated the rocks to make a Rock Garden of Words. We are always on the look out during read aloud time for Rock Words. At writing time, we are trying to put Rock words in our stories. Last week the word joyful was very popular. This week I am hearing many kids use the word jubilant!
