I want to thank all the families for donating to the Gift for Kids program. We got Olivia so many presents that she wanted like Lego Friends, art supplies, books and games. The children really seemed to enjoy this project and most of all they learned that the holidays are about family, friends, and giving so thank you!!
We have been busy in Room 24! Ask your child about...
* basewords and suffixes in Fundations
* the books we have read in reading group this week
* how to use the sequence of events words (First, Next, Then, In the end) to retell a story
* the Jan Brett books we read and how there are many characteristics that are the same in her books
* the different versions of the gingerbread man and what was the same and different in each book
* the Jazz band concert
* working in the library on the Hour of Code project
We have also been talking about different math strategies that we can use to add and subtract.
We have used a part, part whole mat
We have used a tens frame to Make 10
We have used the number line too!
Other strategies we have talked about are using doubles, doubles plus 1 and doubles plus 2
I hope all of your families have a wonderful vacation and enjoy time to relax and spend time with your family! Thank you for all your support this year!
