Friday
Note (10/27/2017)
Math In math, we learned
the attributes of shapes. We practiced finding squares, circles, rectangles,
triangles, and hexagons around the room. We also learned about some 3D shapes.
We talked about cylinders, cones, cubes, and spheres.
Language Workshop This week we
finished our author study on Mercer Mayer. We read his series of books about finding
unusual things in hidden places around the house (There’s a Nightmare in my
Closet, There’s Something in my Attic, There’s an Alligator Under
my Bed, and There are Monsters Everywhere.) With each book we discussed story elements
(characters, setting, and sequence of events).
Reading
Workshop
We continued practicing the expectations for Literacy Centers when the teacher
is working with small groups. We also
read the predictable reader My Dog.
We discussed how we can look at the picture when trying to read an unknown
word.
Writing
Workshop
Our sight word was “be”. We
practiced it by using it in the predictable chart, “For Halloween, I will be
____.”
Word
Study
We are starting through the alphabet a second time. We are focusing on the
sound the letter makes and the correct formation. Our goal is for every student
to know all 52 letters and their sounds by Christmas.
