Math Fun...

This past week we worked with jelly beans to count, graph, sort, and make number sentences!  We had a lot of fun and thank you to the various families who sent in jelly beans and eggs!

Our Audiologist Visit...

Last Thursday and Friday we had Mrs. Stephanie Lockhart from UC Health come to the classroom and discuss hearing and sound.  We had a wonderful time learning about how sound produces vibrations for our ears to hear.  We also made a kazoo out of a comb and wax paper.  We also learned there are three things you can do to help your ears: turn down the volume, cover your ears, or walk away!  If you did not ask your child about the visit, please ask your child about something they learned.  I was very appreciative of Stephanie coming into the classroom to talk about hearing and sound!

Walk - A - Thon...

 

We had a blast at our Walk-A-Thon on March 27th and 28th!

 

Working Hard...

This is the end of the 3rd quarter...oh my!  I cannot believe we only have 9 weeks remaining.  The biggest area where many children need to continue to work is sight words.  I have completed all sight word assessments over the past week and will be sending those home with children at the end of the week.  I encourage you to take some time to practice these words.

We are continuing to practice reading simple words (3 letter words) and some children are working on reading words with blends (sl, fl, sm, dr, tr) and digraphs (ch, sh, wh, th).  I am impressed with how the children are doing with this skill.  In math, we are reviewing groups of ten, addition, and subtraction!

We are Lucky...

Pete the Cat...

We read this book last week to help us review subtraction and subtraction number sentences!  The children had a blast listening to this story and singing the song!  The children then did a wonderful job matching the button picture to the number sentence!
