Rainy Monday in SK

Today was another AMAZING day! 

Even with the weather looking pretty nasty out there, we learned lots!

Inquiry into language arts we worked on the letter sound Ss. We practiced writing the letter Ss (upper case and lower case) and highlighted the letter Ss in different words. We also brainstormed different words that begin with the letter Ss. We found words around the room that began with the letter Ss. 

During Math we worked on groups of  numbers. We used manipulatives to create different groups of each number 1-10. This is building up to addition, using language involved with addition.

UOI we worked on sequencing the story of the Little Red Hen. We learned about the process of wheat. First the seed, then the harvesting (pulling from the ground), last we bring the wheat home to make bread! 

 

French started learning the months of the year.  In Music Mr. Flower taught us the Musical Alphabet!

• This week we are focusing on Ss / Aa and the letter sounds. 

**Spelling Words**

Spelling words also went home this week. Spelling words are different than Words of the Week. The following photo shows what that looks like. Those words sometimes are the same words as our words of the week, but are chosen from a high frequency word list. These words will be our spelling words for the month. At the end of the month we will have a spelling test.
