Greetings! Happy St. Nicholas Day! In honor of St. Nicholas, Jingles left the students candy canes. He also reminded the students to always be kind and helpful just like St. Nicholas was.
We began our day by meeting with our Faith Families. With our families, we talked about what it means to be people of integrity. We used the life of St. Nicholas to lead the discussion.
In Language Arts class, we reviewed our oral vocabulary words. We also practiced reading long a words, contractions with not, and our sight words. We worked on our fluency as we partner read a story in our decodable reader and our story from yesterday. We then read a nonfiction piece about telling time and completed pages in our close reading companion that went along with that story.
For Gym class today we played kickball. The students just loved this. They had fun striking the ball, running the bases, and running after the ball.
In Math class today we used our critical thinking skills to solve problems. We also reviewed concepts related to ordinal position. The students do quite well with these words.
Unfortunately, we ran out of time for Social Studies class today. However, on Monday, we had a special Social Studies class. There we created a map of the world showing the seven continents and four oceans.
Just a reminder that tomorrow we have Mass, Library, and Art!
