Officer Sharkey came to read a book aloud to us, "The Legend of Rock, Paper and Scissors." We had the best time! Thanks Officer Sharkey!

In Social Studies we worked on positive self talk potions that tie in perfectly with our writing lessons and inspiring us to be kind to ourselves!!
We worked together with a partner to cut up an opinion essay and put it into the correct order!
We have centers for reading, flex (intervention) and math. Also when we're done with our options we have computer options or bin choices. We play games that help refine skills that we're learning in class like doubles addition and subtraction, cvc, cvce words, and making a ten and so much more! Just a little snap shot into our centers!
We highlighted the different parts of an opinion piece. Does it have a topic (green), 3 reasons(orange),explanations (yellow) and a ending (red/pink).
We were playing doubles dash! We had to add numbers like 4+4=, 5+5=, we also did playdough fact fluency with a partner and slate equations.
Each day we have small group instruction. While Mrs. Graham is teaching, we work through various centers:
Fluency center: We read the passage aloud together, then go back to our seats and use the whisper phones to reread it.
Word work: This week we're cutting pictures, saying their name and sorting them by long and short vowels
Reading comprehension: We read a passage, then answer questions to see how well we understood the story
Phonics: We practice writing words with our phonics pattern of the week. This week, it is CVC words like mud, sit, and cat.
Some centers are independent at our seats and some centers are partner or group work! We've been working really hard at having a nice quiet partner/group work voice so our friends can learn while Mrs. Graham is teaching!
