Finally . . . Winter Weather!

Greetings! I hope everyone is doing well and is having a nice weekend. Well, this past week we finally had winter weather. We had our first early dismissal and our first two hour delay of the season. Let's hope that we don't have too many more of those! 

In Religion this week, we talked about how the pope leads and cares for the Church. We also discussed ways that the Church serves others. 

During Language Arts this week, we learned to blend and read words with the inflected ending -es. We also blended and read r-controlled -or words. In addition, we practiced our new sight words and worked on telling the theme of a story. This week we read Jan's New Home. The students really enjoyed this story and did a fantastic job answering questions from it. We also practiced using verbs without s in sentences and wrote the steps in blowing a bubble. 

In Math class this week, we learned how to divide a square in half several different ways. We also learned new math facts: the subtracting 2 facts. To practice these facts we used our student fact cards and our wrap-ups. We ended the week learning how to make tally marks. 

For Gym class this week, we danced to some favorites: YMCA, The Birdie Dance, and Hokey Pokey. The students smiled the whole class! 

Just a reminder that there is no school on Monday!!
