September 15

Another wonderful day.

This morning we learned about our second Daily 5 job called Read to Someone.    Together we made a list of expectations which include:  2 people together, sit elbow to elbow and knee to knee, quiet voices, eyes on book, stay in one spot, choose a good learning spot and choose enough books.  We did amazing.  We will continue to practice tomorrow .

Today during Writer's Workshop we practiced adding details to a story using our 5 senses.  We talked about what is the job of a writer: to catch a reader's attention and help create a picture in the reader's mind.  We learned that we do this by adding details.

During our printing practice we worked on the letter t.  We talked about how letters always start at the top and move down just like rain falling from the sky.

After lunch we continued on with calendar activities.  During Math we learned a game called Skip Count Stomp.  This game helps us with our skip counting by 5s and 10s.  The tricky thing about this game is that we do not always start at 5 or 10.  We will continue to practice this skill.

We had gym today and played a super fun game of tag.

At the end of the day we created a wonderful senses page on touch.  I have attached a picture.


Milk forms went home yesterday.

Have a wonderful evening!

P.S. I just realized that I accidentally deleted yesterday's post.  Oops I hope everyone had a change to read it.
