Signs of Spring!

Greetings on this beautiful Thursday! I hope everyone was able to get out and enjoy the weather. The students were so excited to go outside for recess. They have so much energy stored, and they enjoyed letting some of it go! 

In Religion class today we began our chapter on God's forgiveness. Today we read the story about the Forgiving Father. We said that the father in the story is just like God as he is always ready to forgive us. 

In Language Arts, we reviewed our oral vocabulary words. We then practiced reading words with the diphthongs ou and ow; next we practiced spelling words with the inflectional endings -er and -est and using those words in sentences. After that we read our word wall to review all of our sight words and practiced using our vocabulary words in sentences. Our focus then switched to reading. We partner read a story in our decodable reader booklets and our story from yesterday, Whistle for Willie. We then read a nonfiction piece about instruments and their sounds and completed pages in our close reading companion. 

For Gym today we went outside to the parking lot. It was so nice to be able to enjoy the fresh air. The students loved every minute of it. 

In Math today we continued to practice solving subtracting problems mentally. The students are doing a great job of remembering to count backwards. 

We ended our day with Social Studies. Today we talked about how oranges grow from the tree to orange juice. 

Enjoy your night!
