With a snow day, the Elf Shoppe, collecting money for our toy drive, and the general excitement radiating off of five and six year olds due to the upcoming holidays it was one CRAZY week in K2!
In ELA we started Unit 4 which is titled Around the Neighborgood. Our essential question was what do people use to do their job? Our vocabulary words were equipment, uniform, utensils,expect, remained. We read the stories "Whose Shoes?", "Little Juan and the Cooking Pot," and "Workers and Their Tools." We focused in on the letter Oo and the short and long vowel sound it makes and the sight word you was also introduced. In learning centers we practiced sight words learned so far, wrote about tools that different jobs need to do their job and sorted pictures by their medial sound.
In Math we finished Topic 5 and will be taking the assessment on Monday. The remainder of the week we will be reviewing what has been taught so far. We will start fresh with Topic 6 in the new year.
At the end of this coming week each K2er will be coming home with a Winter Break Challenge sheet that has some different activities to do to keep their brain strong over vacation. Anyone that completes the challenge and returns the sheet to me on Tuesday, January 3rd will receive something special.
As a reminder we have extra gym on Monday so please send your K2er with sneakers and Pajama day is Friday.
