Dear Families,
We have been learning a lot about
dental health this week. Not only brushing, flossing and seeing the
dentist, but also protecting your teeth while playing sports and
eating food that makes your teeth happy.
WOW! You helped us collect over 100 food items for local families in need!!! THANK YOU!
Books Read: Tooth Fairy, Just Going
to the Dentist, Doctor DeSoto, Franklin and the Tooth Fairy, Norman
Fools the Tooth Fairy, and
the song, Wiggly, Jiggly Loose Tooth
During writing
time they are; visualizing places and people to write about, adding
words (letters) to their pictures, rehearsing what they want to say
about what they wrote, taking turns sharing their ideas and writing
with partners, going back into their writing pieces and revising what
they have written by changing or adding to what they wrote and
continuing to build up their confidence as writers. We received a
letter and a signed poster from Jan Brett and our pen pals from
Pittston sent us cool pictures. It is fun to write to people
and have them write back! It makes our writing purposeful.
Animated
Alphabet is our approach to phonemic awareness and spelling. The
letters are taught through a multi sensory approach of music, dance,
characters and signs which help the students hold onto that
information. The
characters
we learned this week were; Leaping Eve and Winkie Walrus.
In math we are
working with two digit numbers, formation of numbers, addition and
subtraction practice, counting and number recognition, solving number
stories, sorting, graphing, and
continuing our calendar routines. Our routines at calendar time
include; counting to the calendar number of the day, weather
observations, tracking the number of days we have been in school and
days of the week.
We
are learning about the Woolwich Way! The Woolwich Way is made up of 6
qualities that will help us to be the best we can be! (Courtesy-
I can use good manners, Compassion-I
can help others, Respect-
I can treat others kindly, Honesty-I
can tell the truth, Responsibility-
I can take care of myself and my stuff, Quality-
I can do my best even when things are hard)
