Today our class was surprised to have a new student join our class. Ask your child who joined our class. Today we read the book "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie". It is a favorite that most kids are familar with. After reading it, we retold the story together. Then the kids drew something that happened in the story. We shared our ideas with our elbow partners. We read the story "Little Bears" together as our shared reading. We used picture clues to figure out unknown words. Our new letter was Ss. We went on a Ss hunt. In math, we played "Roll the Number 2". We rolled 2 dice, counted the dots and then practiced writing the number. We talked about bus rules 3 and 4. They are keep the aisle clear and stay seated. In gym, the kids played "blob tag". They said it was really fun. Playtime, indoor recess, lunch and rest time are brought up daily as fun parts of our day!
