Week 23

Hi all! I hope that you all had a wonderful weekend, I had a busy one moving! Here is the what you need to know for this week as well as what we got up to on week 24(time is flying by!)

Wednesday: Pink Shirt day. Kids are to wear a pink shirt for anti-bullying awareness. Also library day!!!

Friday: Spelling test and Mental Health activity day. The children will be rotating through various classrooms and going through various activities with other teachers to support taking care of our mental health. I think most of them will want to hangout with me all afternoon at my Lego room.

Language: We continue writing in our writing journals every single day, the kids confidence in independently writing sentences is coming along. A great thing to do at home is practice putting their spelling words into sentences. We finished looking at the long O and started looking at the long U. The students also started working with _sh and _ch sounds.

Gym: It was my week with them in gym, we went back to the dance unit we had started prior to Mission Impossible. The students are in LOVE with doing the cha-cha slide!

Math: We continue practicing skip counting by 10, 5 and 2s through our centers. We also working on the Chromebooks again to build a 100 chart using different shapes/pictures. We will hopefully be wrapping this unit up this week!

Social: DINOVILLE IS OFFICIALLY COMPLETE! It took us forever, it was a tad chaotic but it is finally done. We started to map it out last week, this will continue on this week and then we have a few more activities to do with it!


Science: We read the story "Goldilocks and the Three Bears" and we had the students build a chair our of paper that would be stronger than baby bear's that Goldilocks broke. Having grade ones fold things takes a lot of time and patience but we are almost complete the chairs! We also took a break from this and participated in the science challenge. I had to be as hands off as possible in this challenge and the students reviewed their knowledge from the 5 Senses unit to identify different items.
