Math:  Today for math we worked on building towers and matching a certain number.  We were able to work with partners playing "match it." Today we used the numbers 5-10.

Writer's Workshop: For workshop today we started with the story Wilfred Gordon McDonald Partridge by Mem Fox.  We did a turn and talk with our partners and wrote in our journals.

WE HAD MUSIC TODAY!

Reading/Phonics:  Today we learned about the letter R and the sound it makes.  We read the Alphatales story Rosie Rabbit's Radish and brainstormed words that start with the letter R and worked on our letter R poems.

Daily 5: Today we learned about and practiced Read to someone.  During this time we sit EEKK with our partners.  The EEKK stands for elbow, elbow, knee to knee.  We practiced being a good listener and giving compliments at the end.  We really liked enjoying a story with a friend.

Social Studies:  Today was TIME FOR KIDS day.  Today's magazine was about Giraffes and other animals.
