Thanks to all the parents who made it to open house tonight. I will send the handouts home tomorrow for those who were unable to attend. As always....if you have questions...send me an email.
During Readers Workshop we continue to work on reading stamina, and what a workshop looks and sounds like. I read A Quiet Place by Douglas Wood and how finding a quiet place to read is important so you can think as you read.
During math workshop, each student received their first math journal. First Graders played Monster Squeeze using the number line. (I'm thinking of a number between 0 and 9. The student makes a guess...4. I tell them...no, my number is bigger than 4. So now they know the mystery number is between 5 and 9. We keep going until someone quesses the mystery number. This is a number sense activity. Second graders reviewed the number line, but with bigger numbers: 3 digit and 4 digit numbers. Tomorrow they get their toolkits!
Writing time was spent looking at ABC books and creating an anchor chart of what we notice about the writing of the books. (Reading like a Writer) We'll continue with this tomorrow.
Thursday we have P.E., so make sure they were gym shoes or have a pair here to change into.
