Sept. 18, 2019

Dear Families,

Our classroom has been full of excitement, concentrated learning, exploring, collaboration and building routines.
We have been busy with...

- review of handling materials

- classroom jobs

-sound study/alliteration/sentence structure

-number sense/math games/interactive hundreds board/more than/less than 50

- we visited the Library yesterday for the first time

-we  started to talk about the idea of belonging. Students were asked: What does it feel like when you belong? and How does it feel when you do not feel like you belong? Their answers were pretty insightful! 

-We read a story called "Pebble: A Story About Belonging" - it is such a beautiful story! We began talking about the different groups and communities that we belong to. 
-we read the story the Leaf Man and went outside to use loose nature pieces to create a picture on a canvas

Ask me about the story we read about missing numbers.
