Here are a few highlights of the week...
On Friday we will be celebrating Valentine's Day from 9:30 to 11:00. Many thanks to Marni for her help with this. Don't forget -- No candy!!!!
We had a visit from Julie Schmidt, an education student from Marylhurst, today. She observed a math lesson and then played her fiddle for the class.
There is no school Monday due to the President's Day holiday. There is a late start Wednesday the 18th. Everything will be two hours behind schedule.
Here are a few themes for the week:
Theme Book: My Lucky Day
Chapter Book: Elmer and the Dragon
New letter: Ll
New words: do, are, that (week 2)
Comprehension skill: Cause and Effect
Writing: Valentine's Day words, details
Math: Numbers to 20, counting by 10's and 1's, addition, subitization
Social Studies: Presidents with Ms. Milkovic
New Song:Goodbye Old Paint
Star of the Week: Jake
Education-speak word of the week: subitization -- to instantly glace at a group of objects and perceive how many there are without counting. Adults roll a dice and subitize the number rolled. In kindergarten we use ten-frames, dice and dominoes to work on this skill.
