Literacy: We read the
book Roses Are Pink, Your Feet
Really Stink by Diane de Groat. The
children focused on strategies that good readers use when they read. The focus strategy this week was identifying the
problem in the story for the characters and the solution. Gilbert wanted to make Valentines for his
friends. He was upset with two children
in his class and made them mean cards.
So after Gilbert told the others why he was upset, everyone apologized. In the end, Gilbert made new cards that were
nice for them.
Math: This week the children were very busy during math
time. They learned how to divide a whole object into halves equally, how to
read and make a map. The high point of
the week was playing the Money Cube Game.
It was a great game that helped the children review the names and values
of coins.
Writing: The children continued to learn about nonfiction
books. We read the story I Like Pasta by Jennifer Julius. They then generated a list of foods we could
write about in class. Next the children
were provided the opportunity to examine grapes and raisins. They used their senses to generate facts about
grapes and raisins to create a two- page book.
