Monday, February 28th

Our new sight word this week is at and we will be reading many of Dr. Seuss's books!  This morning we read Green Eggs and Ham.  We talked about Dr. Seuss's books having lots of rhyming, many sight words, and silly characters.  In our Dr. Seuss journal, we drew a picture from the story and wrote a sentence to go with it.  We also checked if the story had rhyming, sight words, and silly characters, which Green Eggs and Ham had!  Later in the morning, we tasted 5 types of green foods (broccoli, celery, olives, cucumbers, and limes) and checked whether or not we liked them.  We continued to practice skip counting in math and reviewed patterns with a Dr. Seuss activity.  In the afternoon, we went to music during our specials block.  Mrs. Casaz came to our classroom for the first time today.  She will be spending time with us every afternoon to work on reading and writing with part of the class while Mrs. Skeels works on reading and writing with a small group of our classmates.


Tomorrow we will be making our March calendar and doing a fish bowl math activity.  Our new classmate, Peter will also be starting tomorrow!!!!!


Reminder: Field Trip money for next week's trip to Whitewater is due by Friday. The cost is $9.55.
