Friday Note 12/15/17

• Math-  In math we played math games to review topics we have already covered.

• Language Workshop— We read different gingerbread stories.  We had fun comparing and contrasting different versions.  We read The Gingerbread Pirates, The Gingerbread Girl , The Gingerbread Cowboy and several others.  Ask your child about the different versions we read.   

• Writing Workshop— We wrote in a journal each day in response to the gingerbread book we read for the day. We are working on writing a good sentence (starts with a capital letter, finger spaces between words, an ending mark.).  

• Reading Workshop—Students are worked daily in Literacy Centers while I read with each student to determine their independent reading levels.

• Word Study— Our letters for the week were “Yy”, and “Zz”.  We finished the alphabet and I did end of quarter letter identification assessments.
