Recap of what we learned last week:

It was great to see everyone after the Christmas break! The kids were ready to go and happy to jump right back into work!

Bible Study - We learned the story of the Wise Men visiting Jesus from Matthew 2:1-12. Our Bible words for the week were: "They fell down and worshiped Him" Matthew 2:11

Central Truth - God shows His love for us by guiding people of all nations to faith in Jesus through His word.

Grade-Level Truth - The good news of our Savior's birth is for all people.

ELA - We continue to focus on letter names, letter sounds, and handwriting skills. We have made it through all the letters of the alphabet. We have listened for the letter sounds in words, talked about how our mouth looks and feels while we say the letter sounds, and have written the letters on handwriting paper to help us control the size and shape of the letters. This helps them to be more uniform. Students are blending and reading not just words but phrases. They practice these skills by having to read words/phrases and match them to the pictures that show it. We also continued working on our "pinch and tuck" pencil hold.

We reviewed our letter sounds/names and worked with decodable words to read some short stories isolated beginning, middle, and ending sounds of words.

Math -We wrapped up talking about "math words" used for comparisons. For example taller, shorter, longer, and shorter. We know when we compare two things that go up and down (vertical) we want to use the words taller and shorter. We know when we compare things that go across (horizontal) we want to use the words longer and shorter. We have compared items we have in our desk and we have completed work from our Math Workbook.
