In phonics we are beginning to learn about long vowels. This week we learned about long a with sneaky e (as in lake). We watched a video on Starfall.com about sneaky e and we played a long a game on the website. We also visited SpellingCity.com to review our long a spelling words. Our class loves technology, and we especially love our ActivBoard!!! J
We read an amusing story: The Farmer in the Hat. That cat sure did make for an interesting farmer! We discussed cause and effect and the characteristics of a play, such as rehearsals, lines, and roles.
In math we continued working with addition and subtraction. We can add ten to a number by using the number chart. We can count forwards and backwards by tens and forwards by fives. We are also beginning to count by even numbers. We are ready to begin counting money next week! It’s going to be a blast!!!
During our unit time, we had a lot of Spooky Fun. We read many spooky books. We completed Dem Bones math, and we made Haunted Hands. Some students brought in extra treats on Friday afternoon, and all of our students left school EXCITED about Halloween! I hope you had a great Halloween. We sure did! Check our family blog for pictures of Kennedy and Case in their costumes.
