A Week in Review

What a wonderfully busy week we had in Room 101!  Check us out in these photos.  We were wondering what a Leprechaun might look like and created them on the computer.  Then we wrote sentences describing their appearance.  We also wrote notes to Liam the Leprechaun suggesting some safe places to hide his treasure.  We tried to use some of the direction words to help guide him to the perfect spots!  Liam wrote us back!

We are in the process of creating two books and are working on making our own dictionaries.

Even though we already had our math facts quiz, we still practice our flashcard.  Keep practicing at home as automaticity is critical.  We have also been practicing the spelling of number words and the connection between number words and their values. 

Exploring with large and small pattern blocks, geoboards and geoblocks we have created many designs.  We are learning how interchangeable some of the shapes are, and have explored some of the similarities and differences. 

Quite a few of our classmates have been sick.  We wish them a speedy recovery, and are taking care of ourselves by making sure we are washing hands and using hand sanitizer.
