The rest of this week we will not be on our normal schedule. We will be taking our CogAT's in the morning 8:30. Please make sure your little one gets a good nights rest and has a good breakfast. Then we will do a little math to finish out our morning. The afternoon will be focused on literacy!
Today we took care of some business...We took our middle of the year TEMI (math assessment), we took our spelling pre-test (we have some studying to do this week) and we had the store. A lot of buying going on today...but then again the behavior in this room is UH-Mazing!!
Spelling our "chunks" this week are long e (ea) and the st blend. We found the blend at the beginning and end of some of our words!
Jack can now say he has been promoted to TOP Dog Status!
This morning we heard from some more pups and their response journals!
This week we will be talking about VOICE in our writing! Today and tomorrow we are focused on identifying our audience. We will be writing messages to specific people. When you are reading different things at home talk to your pup about who the audience is for that specific piece of writing...Using different genres (recipes, letters, emails, work publications etc). Identifying an audience can be hard for little ones!
I have a couple of videos to put up...but of course my technology is not cooperating.
