Snowman!

Greetings! I hope everyone is enjoying your weekend. Sorry this post about Friday is late; things got busy for me this weekend! 

We began our day on Friday by attending Mass. Today we celebrated the Most Holy Name of Jesus. Msgr. reminded us to use Jesus' name with respect and to call him by name when we need him. 

In Language Arts class, we reviewed soft c and soft g by using our letter tiles to spell words. We then practiced using our sight words in sentences. Next we read our decodable reader and practiced identifying examples of cause and effect in the story. After lunch, we sorted sentences based on whether the verb was in the past tense or future tense; we used the Smartboard to help us. Finally, we wrote the final step in making a snowman. 

In Math class today we practiced identifying ordinal position to the 26th. We used the alphabet for this. We gave each letter a number that corresponds to their position in the alphabet. We then used this code to figure out mystery words. The students loved doing this. 

During Science class we talked about the various states of water. We said that when water freezes it becomes a solid. When the ice melts, it is a liquid. And eventually water will evaporate into the air and become a gas. 

Then it was time for Art class. Today we made snowman using paint and construction paper. I'll post pictures on Monday once everything has dried. 

Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Stay warm!
