K-1 News!

Week of March 10th!

Monday

Today was a wonderful day in K-1.  We were all doing our job and it just felt like a fantastic learning environment!  We read a nonfiction book about a tiger who grows up.  We talked about how we have grown up and about things we can do now that we could not do when we were littler.  We worked on our new sight words for the week.  We practiced using them in sentences.  We drew a picture of what we want to be when we are big.  We finished up work from last week.  We watched Berenstain Bears.  One was about taking good care of our teeth and not being afraid to go to the dentist.  We watched another one that was about not changing to be like a friend….that you have to just be yourself.  We had PE.

Tuesday

We played Bang!  with our carpet partners.  We read Leo the Late Bloomer.  We talked about how Leo “bloomed” when he was ready to bloom.  We worked with a partner and circled our sight words in sentences that we read.  We read sentences and fixed them during writing.  We played Number Bingo.  We had Art.

Wednesday

We practiced our Jolly Phonics sounds with a partner.  We practiced making words with letters.  We did a fantastic job doing that!!  We read a story in our student book together as a class and then with a partner.  We had music.  We voted to have our snack before we went out to recess.  We talked about stories having a beginning, middle, and end.  We talked about what happened in the beginning, middle, and end of Leo the Late Bloomer.  It was an early out.

Thursday

We did yoga today to calm ourselves since Thursday seems to be an active day for us.  We did Literacy Centers.  In our Literacy Centers, we did a Scholastic News about taking care of our teeth, we colored a page with sight words on it, we read a story with Tessa, we played Literacy games on the computer, we worked together to build with blocks, and we talked about using pronouns like I, we, they, she, and he with Mrs. Jedlicka.  We had Guidance today.  We had earned lunch in the classroom, so we did that.  We practiced adding two dices.  We had PE.
