Tuesday Tales!

Mallory did a wonderful job leading us through the classroom promise, updating our calendar and reading to the class. Thanks, Mallory!




We worked on spelling patterns today with words that have the /k/ sound. We learned that most will begin with c; that if begins with k, most will have the vowel i, e, or y as the 2nd letter. If it begins with q, it will begin with qu...in fact, all q words begin with qu. We also learned that the /k/ sound at the end of the word will be spelled with ck.

We began reading the book Where Are You Going, Manyoni. We are learning what we can do on our own when we don't understand a word. We will work some more on this tomorrow.

In writing we worked some more on the writing process, focusing on editing. We also read the book, The Snow Show, and looked at organization.

Today was a switch day with a Monday schedule, so we went to the library. When we returned, 2nd graders worked on the partial sum algorithm and 1st graders learned more about non standard measurement.

I will be out of the building tomorrow at a district meeting. There will not be a posting, but Mrs. Negele will be the teacher so the students will not lose a day of learning.

Have a GREAT night and don't forget to READ....READ....READ!!
