Greetings! Happy Monday! Happy March! It is hard to believe that another month is upon us!
In Religion class today, we learned the Great Commandment: to love God, love others, and love ourselves. We talked about various ways we can love God, others, and ourselves. We also created a giant heart to help us remember this commandment.
We began a new week of learning in Language Arts; this week, we are reading about ways to sort and classify things. We began by learning our oral vocabulary words (classify, distinguish, entire, organize, startled). Then, we worked on making predictions as we read the classic fairy tale Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Following that, we learned how to blend and read r-controlled -ar words; we really enjoyed talking like a pirate as we read them. We ended our morning by learning our new sight words (four, large, none, only, put, round).
This afternoon we read A Barn Full of Hats. I just love seeing their fluency grow and become more expressive. After that, we talked about how to combine sentences using and, but, and or.
In Math class today, we learned how to subtract with regrouping. We did great taking one away from the tens. We want to take one away from the ones as well. We are working on adding a ten to the given ones already. We will continue to practice tomorrow.
We ended our day with some Dr. Seuss fun. I just love celebrating this week with the students. Each day, we will read a story and do an activity associated with the book. Today, we read Horton Hears a Who. We wrote about how we can be kind like Horton. We are working on adding our writing to a craft.
Have a wonderful night!
