Skippyjon Jones Play
Just a reminder--I have a couple students that didn't return the permission slip/$2 for the play field trip on Monday. PLEASE send this in first thing Monday morning so they can go with us to watch Skippyjon Jones!
Assessments
I have been finishing up round one of assessments this week for report cards. I have noticed 2 areas of weakness as a whole: subtraction (with numbers up to 5) and identifying 3-D shapes (cube, cone, cylinder, sphere). Any extra help on these two things at home would be greatly appreciated! We will keep working in the classroom too!
Officer Baird
Yesterday we went to a presentation by Johnson County Sheriff Deputy Baird. Deputy Baird taught us about personal space, saying no to strangers, and we even got to meet his police dog Benny! Check out the pictures below.
Literacy Centers
Last week we added a lot of new literacy activities to the sight word, word work, and handwriting centers that are part of literacy center time in the mornings (in addition to computers, reading center, writing center, and pocket chart). The boys and girls LOVED the new activities in the 3 centers! Check out the pictures below.
Magnifying sight words--use the magnifying glass to read the tiny sight words, and then write the word on the line.
Sight word search--shake the bottle of sand to find the hidden sight words written inside on squares. Highlight the word on the recording sheet when you find it!
Sequencing picture puzzles.
Handwriting ABCs--write words from around the room on the correct page in your ABC book.
Bananagrams--as fun to say as it is to play! Use the bananagram tiles (think scrabble tiles) to make as many words as you can think of!
Have a great weekend!!
