From Beckah:
We read a book. It was called The Wednesday Surprise.
From Mrs. Clough:
Wow! Feels like forever ago that I last posted, but I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving break, had full bellies, and had lots of good times with family! I certainly did and before you know it, it will be time for Winter break! :)
Monday I was gone at a meeting, hence no blog post; and the last two days I was home sick with a flu bug! Ugh! It certainly has been going around school and everywhere, I think!
To give everyone a quick update on what we have been working on this week since being back from break:
Math-We are working on different strategies and problems that require us to skip count by 2's, 5's, and 10's.
Shared Reading-We are continuing with working on inferring ("You take your background knowledge and your clues from the text, you put 'em together and you just infer!") and this week we read the book Baloney which the kids really enjoyed, and as Beckah mentioned, we read The Wednesday Surprise.
Social Studies-We are going to be wrapping up our maps unit. I have a special culminating event planned for the beginning of next week, so stay tuned!
I hope that the packets I sent home before break were helpful and that your child chose to work on it a bit! :) I will do the same again, at Christmas break time with some new activities.
A few reminders:
-Please send your child's holiday tradition page back to school (the red construction paper that went home before break). We want to begin discussing our holiday traditions before we begin our unit on Christmas Around the World. Please send them back as soon as possible.
-Wednesday December 5th is an Early Release at 1:40pm for teacher inservice
Thanks for stopping by!
Mrs. Clough
