Crazy Week

It was kind of a crazy week with no school on Monday and staying at school all day on Friday, but we made it! 

This morning we did centers.  We finished a math test at once, made a Happy Birthday book for a student at the second, worked in our math journals at the third and worked on Starfall on the iPads at the last center.  After recess we did our fine motor centers which included plastic chains, nuts and bolts, letter beads, tweezer couting, and stacking small cubes.  

At our math center and after lunch, I introduced addition.  We talked about how addition is combining numbers like 2+3=5.  This seemed to be a concept that they understood quickly.  

We talked about the 4 seasons and wrote about Fall.  After going to the computer lab for a while, we turned to the classroom and did math centers where we worked on pattern block puzzles and sorting.  

Next week is Red Ribbon Week.  To celebrate, everyone is asked to wear red on Monday, wear jeans on Wednesday, and either wear black or be a superhero on Friday. 

Our specials for next week are Art on Monday and PE on Wednesday.

Remember to sign up for The Trick-orTreat Festival.  A flier went home about that today.  I also sent a book order home.  You a not obligated to purchase anything, but it is a great opportunity to purchase books for low prices.  Our classroom can also earn books from book orders.  

We are back to a normal schedule next week.  Have a great weekend!
