Hello! We had a wonderful week last week. We enjoyed a 5 Senses walk/experiment on Friday. The students were excited to taste, smell and feel new items and guess what they were! I will include pictures after this post.

This week our kindergartners will continue learning letter sounds and writing their letters. We will also be practicing rhyming words. In math,Kindergarten will be counting and writing numbers to 20 as well as drawing shapes.

Our first and second graders will continue with making words (at varying levels, depending on level) an reading their guided reading books. I am so proud of how well they are progressing with their reading and writing. We will be writing narratives about heroes in our lives this week.

We had a great time with our speech teacher, Ms B making slime. While making the slime, we discussed what we have learned in science this week about solids, liquids and gases as well as practiced our speech goals.

We are off to a wonderful new school year! We have started working on academics and I am so proud of the students.  Our kindergartners are working on alphabet sounds and counting to 20. Our first graders are working on words with short vowels and adding and subtracting within 10. Our second graders are working on words with long vowels and blends and adding and subtracting within 100.

All groups are working on their guided reading books which will come home each Monday. Please read this book nightly with your child, as well as the sight word cards that come with it. In math, we are all working on writing our numbers, number words and place value.
