Last week sure was a busy one in Room 202! I hope you enjoy reading about all of the fun and excitement we had!

Curriculum Update:
Literacy
Last week in Literacy we read the story Whose Garden Is It? by Mary Ann Hoberman. While reading this fantasy tale we answered the question, "Who lives in a garden?". We also continued to review the sight words "for" and "he" and learned all about the letter N!
Our story of the week made for a great conversation starter about gardens and the types of plants we can find in them! It's always fun when reading and science come together!
Writing about what the children would plant in their own gardens was also a highlight of our week! This particular assignment was especially fun since some students decided to create fantasy gardens that grew candy and toys!
Math
Last week in math we continued our exploration of teen numbers! We learned that the number 15 is made up of one group of ten and then five more, and the number 16 is made up of one group of ten and then six more! This week we will take a closer look at the numbers 17 and 18!
The class had a blast learning a new game called "I have, who has?" It provided us with the perfect opportunity to practice our teen numbers!
Holiday Cards
Have you been to Dedham Savings Bank lately? If so, you may have seen some of the finalists in their annual holiday card contest! Congratulations to all of the students who were selected. We look forward to hearing the winners be announced this week!
