Finishing up some units!


This week we will be finishing up Unit One in Math and will be taking our first math assessment, although I know all of my friends will do great so please don’t worry because we have been working very hard during math. We have been practicing writing our numbers, drawing objects to show different numbers, counting objects, connecting dots in counting order, and finding objects that are the same and different!

We will also be finishing up one of my favorite units – American Symbols! We loved learning about the symbols and especially the constitution – we have been referring  back to our kindergarten constitution and know that we always need to do our best to make our classroom the best that it can be! I am looking forward to seeing your family constitutions as well! A video from our symbols unit will hopefully be coming this week sometime! Also if you are in the school building towards the end of this week please check out our hallway display featuring some of our projects, don’t worry it will be up for awhile!  We will also be starting to talk about our Five Senses – a super fun science unit that we will also love! The plan is to focus in on one of our senses everyday!

In Literacy we will also be talking about our senses! We will read “Senses at the SeaShore” and “A Feast of the Senses” and in our crabby book we will read “Sam Can See” and “I Can See”. And if you haven’t guessed it yet – our new word will be “see” and we will be focusing on the letter S! Our vocabulary words that we will discuss are explore, senses, feast, finished, and kneads. We will continue to work on blending sounds together to make words and finding sounds in the beginning, middle, and at the end of words.

In writing we will continue to work on adding details and words to our stories. We will also be working on drawing people so they look real and also drawing them in action  - this is tricky but hopefully we will be saying goodbye to stick people! We are becoming great writers!

What another fun week we have ahead of us! :) Mrs. Woita
