Writing-- The students have been working on writing a book this week. We read the pattern book, "What I See". After reading and brainstorming their own rhyming pairs, each student wrote and illustrated his or her own book.
Practice writing at home is always good! Some ideas to practice writing are...
-keep a journal
-write a letter to a friend or relative
-write mom or dad's grocery list!
Math-- In math we have finished our shapes unit and are beginning to learn about even and odd numbers and addition.
