This week was another busy week in K2! In ELA we started Unit 9. Our essential question was "How do you help out at home?" We read the stories Peter's Chair, Helping Out at Home, and The Clean Up. Our vocabulary words were chores, contribute, member, organize, and accomplish. We introduced the sight words help and too. Also, this week we started working with "king e" and explained how when he is added to the end of a cvc word such as mad then he tells the a to "say your name" and it turns mad into made. We worked with our letter boards to build cvc words and then turned them into new words by adding silent -e at the end. We also looked around the room with our "I Spy glasses" for long a words.
This week my son and daughter, Andrew & Anabelle had a day off at school so they spent the day in K2. They loved meeting all the K2ers and especially enjoyed being read to by the K2ers. They were very impressed with how well they read already.
In Math we are finishing up Topic 10. We worked on decomposing 11-19 and talked about how the teen numbers can be broken into two parts by making a group of 10 with some additional ones. We played a matching game where you had to match a picture of a double ten-frame with the teen number. The K2ers loved this game.
We will be moving onto Topic 11 this coming week where we will be counting to 100.
Happy Mother's Day to all the K2 Moms...I hope your day is wonderful!
