Marvelous Monday


I hope everyone enjoyed a nice, long weekend! It was fun to see some of you Friday afternoon at the community dinner. 

Our WOW word this week is impatient.  We were very successful thinking of times we are impatient and had fun using that word in sentences.  Our word family this week is the "it" family.  We are moving on to short "i".  We learned about the phonemes y, v, and qu.  Our red word is you

When we read, we are working to analyze characters in a story.  We are using the No! David! books to do this.  We had a  lot of fun working with that story today.  In writing we are working to add detail to our writing and edit our own stories.  When we edit, we check for punctuation, spelling and missing words. 

We are starting to write a report about an important Community member.  We will make a Haiku Deck presentation when we're done.  We're very excited!
