Fundations
Last week in Fundations the children learned about the letters h, k and l. We also practiced reading the sight words "had" and "did". Our color of the week was white!
Reader's Workshop
It was an exciting time in Reader's Workshop last week as we finished our storybook unit! To celebrate we drew pictures of our favorite old familiar storybooks, and even went on a storybook readers parade! Click here to watch us practice our special parade chant!
Writer's Workshop
In Writer's Workshop we continued to work on our "All About" books which focus on Boyden School. We learned that writers talk about and share their writing with others, and identify things they are proud of, as well as things that were tricky for them when creating their pieces.
Math
Last week in math the class began to explore geometry concepts, specifically how to compose and decompose shapes. Using pattern blocks we discovered that three triangles make a trapezoid, and two trapezoids make a hexagon!
Happy Birthday Teddy Bears!
Celebrating the 120th birthday of the teddy bear was a highlight of our week! In addition to completing many teddy themed activities, we also enjoying reading the books Padington and Corduroy.
In math, the students made teddy bear patterns!
We also made fun pajama day projects in writing!
Happy Birthday Teddy Bears! 🎂🎈🎁
