Week of Learning 4/11

We finished our 3rd 9 weeks this week! ACK! Time is flying by. That also means we completed a lot of assessments this week and your kids are doing amazing! But that will explain why we don't have many pictures this week. 

Reading:
We read cat/kitten books this week! We summarized them and compared them. 

This one had us making text to text connections to Humprhey!

Sight words and Letters:
We learned about the letter Kk this week and made koalas. 

Please keep practicing those sight words at home. There will be a sheet in your child's report card showing which he/she knows and which he/she doesn't. 

Math:
We reviewed 1 more and 1 less a lot this week! We even came up with hand motions to help remind us that 1 more means count up 1 and 1 less means count back 1. We practiced with dice, boards, and each other. 

Unit Study:
We finished our unit on reducing our waste by reusing and recycling. We watched some really cool videos about trash, landfills, and recycling. Even Mrs. Cooprider learned some things! 


5MTOW:
Practice 1 more and 1 less lots while driving in the car. Say any number and have your kids tell you 1 more than the number and 1 less. Go as high as you can to 100 to give them a challenge! :)
