Day 123

It was someone's birthday today but I sure couldn't tell with the 3 bday stickers, the bday shirt, postcard, bracelet, and sweet Mariana's big smile this morning! Ha! She's been talking about it for two weeks now!


We finished hearing the rest of the leprechaun stories today. They were pretty cute!











We worked more on blends. Aaden did a great job with helping us read our new BR words and blends chart!


We did a review on the short u sound.





Way to go GREEN Team Dees!!! My class won the Waste Free Lunch contest amongst the ENTIRE school!!! So not only did Max win a cool lunchbox, I did too! That was a fun surprise I wasn't expecting!


We finished up reading our De. Seuss books by watching or just listening to some being read aloud by various celebrities. Did you know that football players like Tim Tebow can read? They thought that was cool to see a football player read.


These cool cats earned the Eagles of Excellence award for this nine weeks, so they receive these fun tattoos!

Day 122

Check out all of these box tops that Sean brought in today!!! Our collection box hasn't seen that many all year! Thanks Morello fam for contributing!


Miss Jordyn brought some box tops, too!


I'm still loving these leprechaun stories that they've been working on all week!





They're doing great with sounding out blends!


We worked on rhyming words using the OT and UN word families. They did a great job!





We finished writing our lucky day stories. I loved hearing all about what makes them lucky! You know like Play Time Pizza, playing with toys, having an elephant.


Check out these big words they've been writing during center time!


We worked on writing complete sentences for our opinions. I love seeing how concentrated they are!

Day 121

Mariana was the flag holder for morning announcements. They love seeing our friends on the screen!


I'm loving the silly leprechaun stories that they have been working on!











During shared reading we worked on finding question mark words and question marks.





We've been learning all about the un word family this week.








Check out these readers! They were working hard on bundling their fluency!





This week in centers, I have a ton of cute St. Party's Day activities. Mariana was concentrating really bard with finding the pictures around the room to write.


These two were working on rhyming "ot" words since the leprechaun has a pOT of gold.


I think this is the new favorite center this week. They have to find the missing blend for each picture and write the word. After these two would write some pretty big words like princess and blender, they would high five each other. So cute!


We worked on spelling some more St. Party's Day words too.


During math, the leprechaun helped the kiddos review their addition skills and work on their tens and ones.








We started working on map skills too. I'm impressed with how much they already knew about the parts of a map!
