Lead 21 –Literacy:   
 Unit Assessment week – The students were given the Unit 2 Assessment this week.
Science: We have been talking about hibernation this week.  Angela Breis Howard County Naturalist presented “Animals in Winter”.  The children learned the three ways animals survive the winter months.  The animals migrate, adapt, or hibernate.
Math: This week we worked on one to one correspondence with the numbers 1 to 10.  The students created counting books.
Handwriting: We worked on writing the lower case letters r, n,   and m.
Writing: We read the story titled I Went Walking  by Sue Williams. The children discussed how authors observe the world and then write about what they notice. As a class the children generated a list of things they observed just in our classroom.  From the list the students then created their own stories.
The words I, see, the, and a were displayed on to the word wall in our classroom. The students were be able use the word wall as a reference when they wrote their stories.
Jolly Phonics: Please continue to review letter sounds at home. Thank you for working with your child on sound books and word lists found in the Jolly Phonics Envelopes.
