Hi Parents!

Here is what we did today:

We went to P.E. and we practiced our ball skills and tossing skills.  (Emily)

We did math workstations.  (Livi)

We did writing and we learned about how to books. (Lexi B)
Today we started the process of writing our how to books.  We looked at some examples of what a how to book is, such as how to make trail mix.  We talked about what goes into a how to book and that you have to be an expert on the subject so that you can explain the process of doing something to others.

We did Daily 5.  We got to pick our 2 choices.  (Anna)

We did math.  We played Towers of 6.  (Brooke)
This is a game where they work with a partner to roll two dice that only have 1,2, and 3's on them, and use cubes (different colors for each partner)  to create towers of six.  They take turns rolling the dice and building the towers so that there will be different combinations of six.  When they have made three towers of six they then record it on the number sentence sheet.  This game helps to build addition skills, counting on, and thinking about the combinations of 6 that there are.

We did fundations.  We got to tap out words. (Kate)

We read a book called My Body.  (Adeline)

Next week Mill Creek will be having a spirit week. If you want your  child to participate send them dressed up in the attire chosen for the day!
