We had an awesome Thursday!
We began our morning with math morning work in which we practiced addition equations and counting on, addition with ten frames, and subtraction with objects and equations. After morning work we had morning message, calendar, and daily news.
Next, we had a beautiful recess outside, it is so fun to be out in the sunshine! Afterwards, we came in and began reading groups. During groups, we practiced phonemic awareness skills and reading, number writing practice, sight word page "where", and listened to a story.
After reading groups we practiced our narrative writing with our "when, where, who, what" chant, and finished writing our story together. Next, we had math in which we practiced subtraction story problems with equations and number bonds.
Our afternoon was filled with lunch, recess, library, earth art project, snack and show and share, quiet time, recess, and free choice centers!
