We learned about the sound that oi/oy make. Like in hoist and enjoy.
Yesterday we listened to Martin's Big Words (a picture book about MLK Jr.) so that we would understand why there is no school on Monday, and colored in a reader that came home yesterday.
The kids all read books both days and yesterday we worked on finding evidence in the book. Tough, but great job!
The kids are learning to really look at the letters within a word, and think about what the order means. This sort had the kids looking for short and long a words. As they placed the word, they read it and the partner either said good job, or helped them fix the word (not much fixing is needed).
My mother-in-law came today. She is thinking about volunteering in our class, and she wanted to test it out. The kids loved her, read to her and gave hugs as she left.
In math we are starting a new unit. This one gets heavily into number sentences and number bonds. The kindergarten standard is to know all facts to 5, and that is what we will start with and move on to 10.
This game they played this afternoon is memory, finding matches that make 5. Tell you what--not much work is needed on this!
Hope you have a fabulous weekend! See you (or the kids) on Tuesday!
