Thank you to all who have signed up to volunteer in the classroom or spearhead a school project/task! The kids really like to see your involvement in the classroom/school. We still need more volunteers to help during Journal in the morning. Please look for an email with more details.
LDC: this week we begin our first rotation to LDC (Literary Development Center), our magnet program. We will be with Ms. Diaz from 1:05-1:50 for the next two weeks. Our mornings remain unchanged, but the afternoon will be compressed.
Language Arts: we will work on the short i sound, final -x, and high frequency words. The Spelling list consists of 10 words: 8 words that follow the rule(s) for the week and 2 HFWs. There will also be 2 optional Bonus Words (no points are deducted if mis-spelled, +1 per word). Spelling tests will be given each Friday morning.
Math: we will work on numbers to 20 and on the hundreds chart
Science: this week we will focus on sorting objects by their attributes. For example, sorting by color, size, shape, topic, texture, etc.
PYP: We will begin the How we Express Ourselves planner this week. We continue reviewing the PYP profile and attitudes and the Choose-Act-Reflect cycle.
We worked as a class to create a timeline of our day together. It started with the Journal activity and ended with Dismissal; some kids added Extended Day to personalize the timeline.
