The End of February

Greetings! Happy (fat) Tuesday! I overheard one student explaining that Fat Tuesday is the day where you can eat something that is bad for you. Needless to say that brought a smile to my face. 

We began our day by going to Adoration. We spent quiet time talking to Jesus asking him to help us have a good day and asking him to help those who are sick. 

In Language Arts today we practiced using our oral vocabulary words as we answered questions. Next we practiced reading long i words by using our letter tiles to help us spell words, and we practiced our sight words and vocabulary words by using them in sentences. Then we learned how to blend, read, and spell words with inflected endings; today we learned that when a word ends in y we have to change the y to an i before adding the ending. Our focused then switched to building our fluency and comprehension. We reread Creep Low, Fly High and worked on identifying the point of view of the characters. We also read our decodable reader. 

In Math class today we learned how to count by 10's from any number. To help us, we performed a counting by 10 rap. The students have a copy that they can practice with at home; we will be practicing every morning during our Math Meeting. 

Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday. We will be heading to a prayer service where we will receive ashes. 

Good night!
