Day 101

Hello,

Here is what we did on Tuesday.

French: Please see Mlle. Jessica's blog for more information.
Calendar: Today our routine was led by Ethan.
Phonics: We talked about the letter "Vv". First we went through the song and found all of the words that have the letter "Vv" in it. Next we made a list of words that have "Vv" in it. Finally we completed a worksheet.
Spelling: We did a spelling pre-test for this weeks spelling test! This should help the students to know which words to focus on.
Gym: Please see Mr. Slyk's blog for more information.

Lunch/Recess

Music: Please see Ms. Kerr's blog for more information.
UOI: We started off today doing the hokey pokey:). The kids identified that it made them feel silly! As a result we read the book "Today, I Feel Silly & Other Moods that Make my Day". It talked about more than just silliness but other moods and how we can change our moods throughout the day. Next we made a list of things that make them feel silly! 
Journal: We talked about what makes us feel silly! "I feel silly when___________. Also when I _______________"

Lunch/Recess

Math: We continued to talk about the nickel today. We sang the song again and they are loving it! Singing songs is a great way for students to learn and have a great time doing it! I played the song and stopped it periodically and the kids had to tell me what number comes next. Next I drew coins on the board and every student came to the board to tell me how many cents were on the board. They did a great job!
