Wonderful Wednesday


Isabella was our child of the day and she did a GREAT job reading The Lazy Pig! We all laughed it was such a funny book! Thanks, Isabella!

We continued with our slice of life stories. We read Shortcut by Donald Crews and saw how he took one small moment and stretched it out over several pages.

In reading we wrote down all we knew about Traditional Tales (Folktales, Fairy Tales, and Legends) and then read a traditional tale to add to our schema about this text type: magic, trickery, royalty, talking animals, things happen in three's, and more.

In math, we all worked on problem solving. First graders also worked on odd and even and second graders working on counting money.

Tomorrow we will go to South Elgin High School to see the play Charlotte's Web. We will eat lunch before we leave, so we will be eating about 10:30. We should be back at school by 1.

Tomorrow we also have P.E. and music. Please have appropriate shoes.
