Another Wintry Day!

Greetings on this snowy April day! I hope everyone had a great weekend! The students were quite eager to tell me all about their weekend. It sounds like they were very busy. 

We began our week with Religion class. Today we talked about how choices we make need to show our love for God. We learned to ask the question "What Would Jesus Do?" when we are not sure the choice we should make. 

We began yet another new week of learning in Language Arts. Today we learned our new oral vocabulary words. We then practiced asking and answering questions as we read a fiction story about a squeaky bed. Next, we practiced blending and reading words with the diphthongs ou and ow. After that we learned our new sight words and vocabulary words. We wrapped up the morning by reading a realistic fiction story titled, Now, What's That Sound?. The students really enjoyed making the sounds in the story. 

This afternoon in Language Arts we worked in our literacy centers to build our fluency and comprehension skills. We also learned when to use a, an, this, and that in a sentence. 

We began a new chapter in Math class today. Today we worked on solving addition problems mentally. First, we learned to count on to solve problems. Then we learned how to add 10 to any number. We quickly learned that when we add 10 it is just like counting by 10. We will continue to practice this tomorrow. 

I hope to see everyone at Family Literacy Night. The event begins at 6:00 in the cafeteria. Enjoy your night!
