Celebrating Groundhog Day!

 Greetings! Happy Tuesday! I hope everyone got to enjoy the weather yesterday. It brought so much hope that maybe we have turned the corner. But, with the upcoming forecast, I'm not so sure now. 

In Religion class today, we talked about how Jesus blessed the children. We talked about how Jesus wanted the children to come to him and was not happy when the Apostles tried to stop them. 

We continued with our week of learning in Language Arts. We began by answering questions using our oral vocabulary words. Then, we used our letter tiles to spell and read words with the long e vowel teams. Following that, we learned how to blend and read words with the prefixes un-, re-, and pre-; we also learned how define these words. Next, we practiced using our sight words in sentences. After that, we learned our two vocabulary words for the week (danger, partner). We wrapped up our morning focusing on building our comprehension skills; this week our skill is main idea and key details. We reread A Team of Fish and wrote about its main idea and the details in the story. 

This afternoon in Language Arts we practiced using the verbs has and have in sentences. We also finished our groundhog writing project from yesterday. They turned out cute. 

In Math class, we learned how to add with regrouping. We began by using a base ten blocks to help us see when we need to regroup (when the ones value is 10 or more). As we got more comfortable with regrouping, we switched to our whiteboards. They key for us is to remember to add the ones first. 

Here is a picture from our 100th day writing project last week. 

Have a great night!
