Week 8

Week 8

Writing Workshop
This week we revised and published our favorite teaching book!  We looked at a Kindergarten writing checklist that showed us everything that should be in our books.  Then, we worked to fix up our pieces or add more to make it ready to share.  We are SO proud of these.  The pieces were sent home on Friday.  Please read it with your child and return the piece to school.






Phonics
We added two new names to our name wall this week- Ollie and Otis!  These are characters from books we have been reading.  These names will help us as we write words with both the short and long O sound.

We ended the week celebrating all we learned about letters, sounds and words!  We went around and read everything we could find in the classroom.  We chanted "WE ARE READERS!"  








 Math Workshop
We continued representing numbers this week by using tally marks.  We used popsicle sticks to show groups of 5.  We practiced counting four sticks, and then crossing the 5th stick to make 5.

We played bingo on Thursday.  Mrs. Hogue 'flashed' tally cards (that means she showed them quick and then puts them down) and we had to cover that number up on our boards.  






Reading Workshop
We continued to focus on using the pictures and the words in our books to read and retell stories during independent reading time.  Many of us are starting to notice our snap words in the books we read.  



We had so much fun at our fall celebration on Friday!  Check out the video below :)  Thank you to everyone who volunteered and sent in yummy treats!
