100th day of school on Tuesday the 29th (will be needing a little help from my friends to donate)I will do a sign up for a few fun things that I will be needing for our 100th day of school soon!!!

Feb 1st- CHAMPS Assembly when we are on stage!! 8:00am

Valentine’s Day Party on the 14th (will also be needing a little help).  If there is anyone willing to head up the Valentine’s Day Party please let me know!!!! This one is less maintenance because of all the valentines they can read.

Spelling:  We will be having a spelling test on Thursday with these words–will, each, about, how, up, out, them, then, she, many. 

The new spelling words for the next two weeks will be– some, so, these, would, other, into, has, more, her, two.  Please remember to practice these words having fun!  Also all words learned before are held accountable in independent writing and spelling tests for spelling grades. The more hands-on you make these words the more concrete they become.

Phonics:  We have covered so much the past few weeks. We will continue to work on vowel teams, blends, vowels– both long and short, word families, etc… We will begin nouns, adjectives, and verbs over the next few weeks.

Math:  The focus over the next two weeks will be telling time (hour and half hour) and fractions.  We will always continue focusing on addition, subtraction, and word problem strategies.  Please work on plus 1 and minus 1 with your babies.  We will also be touching on counting coins in the very near future so if you want a jump start go ahead!   🙂

Writing: Our focus is on story elements (beginning, middle, end, characters, problems, solution) and punctuation.  They are improving so much on their stories.  Writing is hard because there is so much to remember but I am so proud of them!!!

Science/Social Studies:  Arctic animals and Arctic climate! We will be learning and having fun over the next few weeks.

January 14-18

Hello! Welcome back! Sorry I am just now getting to blog. Last week was a whirlwind!

I hope you all had a great break! Thank you to anyone who helped in anyway to make our classroom Christmas party so awesome! Thank you Mrs. Soliz for organizing. And a super thank you to everyone who got me the most thoughtful gifts! I have enjoy every single one and will continue to enjoy them. Y’all were all too kind and I appreciate it!

We had a great first week back and welcomed two new students to our classroom. Tucker and Evelyn are adjusting nicely, but as a class, we definitely need to remember to help them and be kind while they learn the ropes!

We have 10 spelling words: will, each, about, how, up, out, then, them, she, many. Our spelling test will be next Tuesday.

Math: Since last week we have been measuring objects with nonstandard units such as cubes, tiles, and paperclips. The students have been working on finding the longest side, measuring from end to end, counting the units, and recording how long. The students have also been using the vocabulary, longer than, shorter than, longest, and shortest. We will continue this week.

Science: Winter has been out focus, and changes that happen in winter. We have also been talking about animal behavior in winter.

Phonics: We have been making several charts of vowel teams: ea, ee, oo, ai, ay and so on…The students see these words in book while reading, and we are trying to get them comfortable with them working together to make a word make sense.

CHAMPS assemblies have started. You are more than welcome to attend these on Fridays at 8:00 a.m. We will not be on stage until later this year so please be respectful of the parents of the students on stage. Maybe be aware of seating, so they can see and hear their student. Not every student will get an award every time. Students can receive awards all over the school by any teacher or aide. Some examples are– hallway champ, cafeteria champ, a classroom champ, or a student may be noticed by amazing academics or kindness. I always take pictures of the students that get awards.

However, I will not be at school this Friday due to having my wisdom teeth removed. (FREAKING OUT) haha but I will try to have a coworker get pictures of the winners.

These were last Friday’s CHAMPS:

 

Next Monday Jan 21 is a holiday for MLK so—- no school.
