Greetings! Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I don't know about you but mine sure went fast. I was sad to see the warm temperatures leave us too. I guess we are back to normal weather now.
In Religion class we began our study on the season of Lent. Today we learned that Lent begins on Ash Wednesday. We also learned that purple is the color for this season and that we don't sing Alleluia until Easter. We then discussed the three facets of Lent: prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. We will continue our discussion on Wednesday since we will be going to Adoration tomorrow.
We began a new week of learning in Language Arts today. Today we learned 13 new words: 5 oral vocabulary words, 6 sight words, and 2 vocabulary words. In addition we learned how to blend and read long i words spelled i, y, igh, or ie. We worked on the strategy of visualizing as we listened to a story about insects and as we read Creep Low, Fly High. We finished our morning by working in our literacy centers. This afternoon, we learned how to use see and saw correctly in sentences. We also wrote about keeping our teeth strong and clean.
In Math class today we learned how to add 10 to a number. We began by using pennies and a hundred number chart. We started at one number and counted on to find 10 more. We quickly discovered that 10 more is right under a number on the chart. By the time Math class was over, we were adding 10 to a number mentally.
Enjoy your evening!
