Hello! It's good to be back : ) I'm not sure if this was from my tan or what, but one boy asked me if I had been in Africa. :)
We had a great day today. We started by going to Mrs. Knutson's room and practicing the national anthem for the hockey game on Friday. Then we came back and worked on our language arts. We began with the song "The Farmer and the Dell," then worked on isolating sound in words. This was a little tricky for us to hear, and we will keep practicing.
We got into station work. Our stations today included a sentence writing of "I go to the ________", a write the room, a work building, an octopus ABC dot paint game, and a math number review activity. We worked really hard, despite lots of boys and girls saying how tired they were.
In math the children were given a park picture. We looked at the picture and created story problems to go along with it ("There were two balloons tied to the bench. One flew away. How many are left?"
We had time for a snack, story, and a few songs.
