Today in Religion class we looked at the words said during Baptism. We learned that these words are said at all Baptisms including our own. We then role played a Baptism using a baby doll.
Language Arts was full of learning today. We began by reviewing our oral vocabulary words and reading long e: ey, y words. Next we practiced reading compound words and then building compound words. Students worked in groups to put compound words together. Each group was given a basket of halves of Easter eggs with words on them. They worked cooperatively to put the eggs together. I just loved watching them work so nicely with each other. After that we read our word wall to review our sight words.
Our focus then switched to reading. We partner read a story in our decodable reader booklets and Koko and Penny, our story from yesterday. We then read a nonfiction piece about helping gorillas and completed pages in our close reading companion. We finished the morning by finding adverbs that tell when in sentences.
For Gym class today we participated in two activities. We played "Hurl the Pancake". Students placed a bean bag on a racket and tried to toss it into a hoop. It was harder than it seemed, but they enjoyed the challenge. We then played our favorite, "Alligator, Alligator".
In Math today we reviewed subtraction one last time. Tomorrow we will begin to learn how to add three one-digit numbers.
We ended our day with Social Studies. Today we learned the difference between goods and services.
Today's Dr. Seuss book was Horton Hears a Who! After reading the story we wrote what we would have told the Who's. We added our writing to a craft. Have a look:
Tomorrow will be an exciting day! Have a great night!
