Tuesday, January 27th

Math:
Today was iPad math Tuesday.  Every Tuesday we use the app called Splash Math.  It keeps track of each student's progress and challenges them as they answer correctly.


Writer's Workshop:
Today we talked about what a complete sentence is.  It has to have a "who" and a "what."  We did a really nice job.  We also have been using our spacemen to help us remember to keep a space in between our words.

WE HAD MUSIC TODAY!!

Phonics/language arts:
Today for phonics we learned about the an word family.  We brainstormed an words and played a couple interactive games on the smart board.  Next we made our own "van an" book.  I am very proud of all the kiddos, this concept is really catching on!  Way to go!




Reading:
Today we read a story called Katy's First Day of School.  We talked about making connections to a story and we also made inferences while we were reading.  We practiced reading with expression today.

Daily 5:
We did not do book clubs today because I am using this time to do some testing of your children for conferences.  I am looking forward to sharing with you how much they have learned.
REMINDER:  CONFERENCES ARE THURSDAY, JANUARY 29TH AND MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2ND!

Student Readers:  We had two students who asked to read a book to the class this afternoon, way to go Reese and Emily, you did great!!

REMEMBER: BRING IN CHANGE ALL WEEK TO HELP THE COUNTRY OF HAITI!  WE ARE HAVING A COMPETITION BETWEEN HALLWAYS TO SEE WHO CAN RAISE THE MOST MONEY!!
