Anticipation

This morning we rotated through all five of our literacy centers for the first time.  We loved being able to go to each center and wrote impressive writing pieces at the Writing Center. 

Our WOW word of the week is anticipate- to expect something to happen.  Kaylie said that she is anticipating the arrival of her baby brother (!), and Jacob V. said that he anticipates we will have indoor recess because of rain.  We will work all week to use the word in sentences. 

In SWR we learned how to put spaces between words when we write.  Our red word of the week is see.  We are also learning words in the "__at" family.  We brainstormed many, many "at" words.  

In math we are continuing to use tallies to keep track of numbers.  Today, we listened to hear pennies land in a jar and kept track of how many pennies we heard with tally marks.  Your child will have math homework in his/her folder for the first time today.  There are four sheets stapled together.  Please complete ONE sheet each night of the week Monday-Thursday and send it back to school the next day in their folder.  If you have any questions, let me know.  

We started our Social Studies unit about Community today.  We discussed what a community is and the types of people and places we find in our communities.  Help your child notice places as you drive around town!
