Today is Flash's birthday! We went into the LRC and 'whisper sang' to her. She was full of snuggles and LOVING the attention from us! I have a class picture, and will upload that later!
This week we've continued working on homophones, inferring, monitoring, and what 'great readers' look like. We had a reading assembly on Monday, and different teachers got up and spoke about what 'hooked' us on reading. I was honored to share my love and passion that I have about literature and my favorite author.
We took our first Math test today. The testing looks a bit different, because it is problem-based. Remember.... we're getting our kids to think deep and to be better math thinkers and problem solvers.
The kids have finally been able to spend recess outside (because the temperatures have cooled off)! Yeah!
Please continue reading every night with your child. Payton and Jamie are the first Math Masters of the classroom. Be sure to practice facts for a few minutes each night.
