We began writing our first “How To” piece in Writing Workshop this week, after examining some model texts. We noticed that How Tos have numbered steps, so we are writing ours the same way! We learned to plan our steps across our fingers.
In our handwriting lessons this week, we learned how to make an “h” and then turn it into a “b”! Don’t pick up your pencil!
Do you believe in leprechauns? WE DO! We learned about St. Patrick’s Day this week and we had fun discussing Irish folktales and traditions, and listening to Irish music! But the best was finding the GOLD and green footprints a leprechaun left in our classroom! Wow!
In math, we
continue to build numbers 1-10 in various ways, using different tools.
The Darien
Nature Center visited us this week and taught us about what animals do at the
end of winter.
