Reading and Writing

Sorry for the late blog post parents! We are getting the hang of it and will try to post it earlier in the day.

Dear Mom and Dad:

Today we practiced our daily 5 routine by learning to "read to self". Some of us might already be familiar with the daily 5 and it was a great review to of what "read to self" looks like. Ask me to show you what it looks like. Did you know that everyone can read? Today we practiced reading the pictures. Although some of us can read through a book using the words, today we practiced by just reading the pictures. It's amazing what stories we can come up with. 

We also worked on writing today in our journals. Ask me to tell you what we wrote about. We read a book called "The Days the Crayons Quit". This is a really funny book about how the crayons are quitting because they are not all being used. I can remember to add detail and color to my drawings in my journal by remembering this book. We had gym for the first time this year!

In math I had to show many different ways to represent a number. Many of us challenged ourselves. We also learned some math games today. Ask me to tell you what math games I learned. 

Thank you for sending the red folders back to school with me each day and thank you to the parents who have filled out the forms.

Question of the day: What is your favourite part about school this year so far?

Love,
The Rainbow Triad
