WELCOME APRIL!
This week has been filled with our weather unit we have started in science. We are learning all about different kinds of weather we have and why we experience it. Lot's of multi-syllable vocabulary words are involved! This week we began our third and final mission with Go-2 Science. Beth and Curtis are taking us to Baja California Sur, Mexico to study cetaceans (whales, dolphins, and porpoises). We are going to learn so much about so much!!! The children are excited to get started! (and so am I). I am also working to have Beth and Curtis visit us in real life at our school!!! I'll keep you posted. It's kind of a big deal~
We are continuing to practice reading like we are talking instead of word by word and making those sight words more automatic so we don't trip over them when reading our stories. We also have read many spring books as well as weather books. We are becoming amazing readers!
In writing we are editing a final narrative writing piece and next week we will begin our How-To writing unit. This year is moving too fast for me~
In math we are working with teen numbers, formation of numbers, addition and subtraction practice, graphing pets, counting and number recognition through graphing , solving number problems, 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, patterned 10 frames, tally marks, money, and days of the week.
I am sending home any extra clothes you might have sent in for your child to wear. I want to clean out all the winter grip from their cubbies and they might not still fit. These people are growing so very much!
Upcoming Events:
April 18- 22- April Vacation
