And everyone lived happily ever after!

                                             

Another busy week in KS wrapping things up! Our newsletters will continue to be shorter as we finish up units and revisit what we've learned this school year. Here are some of the important things we did...

Our centers included playing various games that work on some of the skills we have learned during Phonics, playing a fairytale STEM game, explored different fairytale centers and activities, wrote fairytale words around the room, and more! 

During Phonics, we continued to work on sentence building and stretching out words with blends and recording each sound.  We continued to work on long vowels, "y" as a vowel in words, and much more! 

We read through various passages together during Shared Reading, finding high frequency words and blends/digraphs.

We continued counting and writing numbers to 100 during Math and solving subtraction word problems.

In Writing, we are wrote How-to books! We taught others how to make a smoothie and a sandwich. 

Join Ms. Rich and Mrs. Dennett for a summer of books, fun, and mindfulness!

Our Mystery Reader this week was a really fun surprise! It was Thomas's Uncle Matt- in town from Chicago! 

Monday at Library, the kiddos got to be cozy with a book and their stuffy.

We have had a fun week reading fairytales! Here are some of the important things we learned...

We visited fairytale centers this week​! We listened to fairy tales and discussed story elements, wrote and read silent e words, practiced reading real and nonsense words, and found and wrote fairytale pictures around the room. We worked on reading and writing sight words and words with blends and silent e. ​We read books assigned to us that focused on skills we are working on in our reading groups. 

We read through various passages together during Shared Reading, finding high frequency words and blends/digraphs. We continued reading with partners and independently and focused on reading fluently. 

We continued counting and writing numbers to 100 and revisiting addition and subtraction during Math and will continue to do so in these final weeks.

In Phonics, we continued to work on long vowels and the letter "Y" as a vowel. We learned that "y" makes a long e or long i sound and can be used as a vowel. We read and wrote power words with long vowels including by, my, go, so, no, me, he, be, and we. 

We continued working on our Science unit on the sun and shade and finding temperatures.
