Happy Monday! I hope you all had a good MEA break.
Today
we started Lesson 6 in Language Arts. We are working with the long i
sound-ie and igh. We took a pre-spelling test as well as did a writing
composition test (finishing up from last week). Then we had a lesson on
new sight words, robust vocabulary, and finding long i sounds in
sentences. In center work we did a fall favorites writing, we practiced
our spelling words by drawing a picture and hiding them inside the
picture, as well as our usual meet-with-teacher, listen to reading, and
read to self.
After lunch we had social studies. There we reviewed landforms. Then we talked about climate and weather. We went to PE and
then straight to library. We came back and had snack followed by math.
In math we played a parachute game where we practiced our math facts.
Then we talked about 'squiggles,' and how they are part of the larger
number in an equation 12=6+6 (6+6 are squiggles). We ended the day with
some pen pal writing work, math games, and RTI time.
