Week 16 Update

In Language Arts, we read the book Snow several times during the week and discussed what animals do when it snows. We learned that verbs are words that tell us what something or someone does. As a class, we brainstormed verbs. Next week will will be adding the words you and what to our word wall! 
In Math, we continued Chapter 5 and started to study tally charts. The children practiced reading and making their own charts. Next week, we will conclude Chapter 5 and start Chapter 6: Geometry and Fractions.

In Science, we focused on different kinds of land we find on Earth (sand, rock, and pebbles). We discussed the difference between rocks and pebbles. 

In Art this week, the children decorated dolls in honor of Al Maweled Al Nabawy. 


-We will be following the Week 2 menu this week. 
-We will have show and tell on Wednesday. 
- I will continue to send Family of the Month notices home but our classroom is always in need of the following items: tissues, wet wipes, and hand soap as we clean and wash our hands often! 
-International Week is approaching (first week of February) and our class will be representing Italy!
