It is a busy time of the year! We have a few things going on at school in these next few weeks that you should have on your calendar. Here's a midweek edition of the blog!
Friday, December 6th: Jack Frost Jam- Dancing in the gym and food in the cafeteria makes for a fun and easy night out with the kids. Proceeds go to 5th grade activities. I hope to see you there!
Saturday, December 13th: Annual craft fair and cookie crumble-This is a great event, too. Come and see some amazing crafts and artisans. The cookie crumble is also a big hit!
Friday, December 12: Report Cards go home. These report cards are very length. They contain a lot of information. Please look over them carefully and let me know if you have any questions.
Wednesday, December 17th: Winter Celebration and Concerts-one concert is at 8:30, the next at 9:45. Both concerts are the same. We will have a snack after the first concert and a party after the second one. Please check email regularly for updates from our room parents. Thanks!
We are beginning trimester 2 Common Core State Standards in both English Language Arts and Math. We will continue to visit Trimester 1 Standards.
In reading we will focus on retelling fiction stories. We will also learn how pictures and words work together to bring meaning to a story.
In writing we are enjoying a week of narrative writing before starting some opinion writing next week. During Shared Writing we are working on using lower case letters and sounding out longer words.
During math we are working on the concepts of greater than and less than. We are also working on counting objects to 20 and decomposing numbers up to 5.
We finished our study of bears and we are enjoying reading lots of Gingerbread Man stories this week and next. We will also be learning about holiday traditions.
