18-21 de enero

 


¡Hola Familias!

Despite the short week, we have been quite busy! The kids are in a great groove and are speaking Spanish every day. We are working hard to fill in our cohete (firework) de español to meet our Spanish goal for the month. I am proud of the effort the kids are putting in!

Here is what we've been up to this week...

Reading / Lectura: We've been practicing the syllables ba, be, bi, bo, bu. We have been learning to differentiate between the lower case "b" and "d"--I've taught the kids to look for the barriga (belly) on the b. :) Additionally, we are wrapping up our pattern books unit by practicing using expression when we read, as well as reading again and again to improve our fluency.

Writing / Escritura: We have been working on creating our own pattern books! We started by thinking of ideas and looking at different books for inspiration, and then we practiced repeating the pattern. We have also been proofreading our work, checking for a capital letter at the beginning, spaces between our words, and a period at the end.

Math / Matemáticas: This week we worked on classifying objects into different groups based on their attributes. We also spent time exploring shapes and creating new designs. On Tuesday, we welcomed a few friends from Mexico into our classroom to work on centers with us!

Social Studies: We learned more about Martin Luther King, Jr. and the work he did to fight for
equality for all.

Report Cards

Report cards should be available to view on PowerSchool. If you have any questions, please let me know!

Next Week

I will be out in the morning on Thursday, January 27th for grade-level collaboration, but I should be back by 10:00am. 

100th Day of School!

Yes! We've almost made it to the 100th day of school! Our 100th day of school is on Tuesday, February 8th. To celebrate, we will be making a 100-piece snack mix! Can you contribute to this fun activity? Check out the sign up here!

Have a great weekend, everyone! ¡Que pasen buen fin de semana!
