BOULDER RIDGE ANIMAL PARK FIELD TRIP/ MAY 15
More information will be coming later, but we will need parent volunteers so if you are interested you can plan ahead to take the day off for this. Parents volunteers will have to drive themselves to the park and you will be able to take your child home from the park too. 

READER'S WORKSHOP

This week we are comparing fictional stories to nonfiction stories.
  • We will use a bubble map to compare the two to see how they are the same, yet how they are different.

WRITER'S WORKSHOP
We are continuing to work on editing in Writer's Workshop this week. It's an important piece in the writing process. We will focus on rereading our stories to see that what we have written makes sense and check to see what we might need to change or add? I have loved watching them all become accomplished writers in DK!!

MATH WORKSHOP
This week we are continuing to work on addition in stations at math workshop. 
Different ways we are discovering addition:
  • Counting all the dots on a domino and writing numbers. 
  • Rolling numbers, getting the matching number of counting teddies, and adding all of the teddies together. 

LITERACY STATIONS
Everyone works at their own developmental rate and many students are reading while others are working on listening for sounds in wordsl, or just sounding out CVC words. Book bags will come home periodically and when they do, please make sure to return them on time so that I can use them agian for other students. The books will be easy for them to read so that it supports them as developing readers. No one enjoys reading difficult stories so easy ones make them confident and help them sound like readers.
