Hi Parents!

Here is what we did today:

We did writing. We revised our plan sheet. We used a checklist. (Andrew)

We did Daily 5. (Logan)

We did free choice because we earned 100 Cougar Compliments. We had blocks, puppets, cars, games, Legos, and Play-Doh to choose from. (Mikayla)

We used our sense of smell to find popcorn. Miss Tappana hid a bag of popcorn in the classroom. It was in a locker. We had popcorn during math. (Kate)

We did Fundations. We did our big cards and little cards and vowel chart. We used the magnet boards. We practiced the _ack words. (Sophia)

We played 10 in a Circle. You take out a cube when you land on a black one. If you land on a red you have to put a cube back in the circle. We counted to 40. (JR)

We went to P.E. We did stations. Our stations were football, baseball, dodgeball, basketball, and a little yellow ball. (Evan)

We smelled some little containers and we had to guess what was in there. There were different smells like cinnamon, garlic, perfume, and mint toothpaste. You had to try to guess what it is. Mrs. Hotchkiss wrote our guesses on the SmartBoard. (Sophia)

Our poem is called Senses at Work. It’s about our senses. We highlighted our chunks like ch, wh, sh, and ck. (Lyrik)

REMINDERS:
·       We sent home the bag of books for the kids to read this weekend! We also included a bookmark with reading strategies. Make sure to return those books and the bookmark on Monday so they have something to read during Daily 5.
·       Next week we are going to start talking about space! We have a field trip on Tuesday to the Planetarium. Please make sure your child is here on time so that they do not miss the bus for the field trip.
·       It is Spirit Week next week! If your child would like to participate, please see the attachment.

Have a great weekend!
