Honoring our Veterans

We started the week off right by praising God and honoring our Veterans.  It was heart warming to see our visiting Veterans stand when their branch song was sung.  Pastor Mark enlightened us by comparing military branch mottos with scripture. I hope you have time to talk about Veterans at home and help your child understand the sacrifices they make for the people in our country.

The class took their last phonics and writing quiz today over letters w, x, y, and z.  It will be exciting to step up into writing sentences soon!

In math we covered ordinal numbers.  The class was excited to learn they already often use ordinal numbers in daily life.

After Spanish we added more data to our chart on magnets.  We are beginning to learn that understanding the properties of a material can help to separate it from other materials.  It will be exciting to see how the class applies their knowledge in this week's STEM challenge.

Our class did a great job being calm and following directions during a practice lock down drill.  Everyone is learning that following directions helps keep you safe at school.

At story time the class gave their opinions about a funny text. 

During learning centers we searched for sight words, found magnetic items in sand with magnets, build with plastic blocks and reproduced Jasper Johns art in a big number celebrating our age.

It will be a short and frosty week. 

Be warm and cozy at home,

Mrs. Luoma
