What a fun busy week. This week we had our hip hop performance. We made people for our community banner. We people and places that are important to use in our community. We started learning about the bird that lives outside our classroom door. We think she has a nest and babies in our roof. We used this website to try and figure out what kind is in the hole. We think it might be a finch or sparrow. We need to get a better look to be sure. https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/browse.aspx?shape=30,18 We spent some time reading books by Eric Carle. We read about a little cloud that liked to change shapes. We went outside to see if we could find little clouds that were making fun shapes too. We are starting to spend some time every day building our reading and writing skills. We learned that being a good reader and writer will help us with any job we want to do. We also learned that good readers and writers need to work hard and practice to get better. We are all working on different reading and writing skills. Some are using pictures to read the story. Others are looking for little words they know. Others are trying to sound out words in books. The best readers can do all three to help figure out what a story is about. We are also starting to try and writing our own stories. We can use worlds around the room, or the sounds we know to write. It is okay if we don't get the spelling right we are just getting our ideas down. The more we write the more words we will learn to write properly. | |
