Time for a Fiesta!

Greetings! Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend! It was nice to see the sun shining on Sunday. 

In Religion class today we talked about how Jesus told us to love and serve others. We came up with several examples of ways we can serve and love others.

Language Arts class was full of learning today. We learned new oral vocabulary words, sight words, and vocabulary words. We also learned how to blend and read words with air, are, and ear. We then read a nonfiction story called Share the Harvest and Give Thanks. It was neat to see how much the students remembered about the first Thanksgiving. We ended the morning by working in our literacy centers. This afternoon we learned about adverbs that tell how and wrote the topic sentence for our persuasive paragraph on why we love the beach. 

In Math class today we learned more math facts. Today's focus was on the subtracting facts half of a double. We used our pennies to help us solve these problems. As long as we know our double facts then we can solve these subtraction facts. 

We did take time to finish our Art project from last week. We added the pink construction paper to make our watermelon slice. 

We ended the day with our fiesta. This was a time to celebrate the traditions of a Spanish birthday. We had a pinata, which the students loved hitting. Then it was time to crack open those confetti eggs; the students loved this. Thank you to everyone who participated in this. 

Here's our pinata: 


Have a wonderful night!
