Thursday--Miss Calderone's class

Today we began our day completing some of our DLP and writing in our October journal. After sharing, we worked on some phonics. We then reviewed vowels and consonants. We identified vowel, consonant, consonant ,vowel patterns and learned how to split the words into syllables. We completed a sheet independently and then corrected it together. We then reviewed nouns and made a list of people, places, things, and animals. After literacy we finished 3 centers. Our morning ended with social studies. We completed some pages in our Illinois packet and read some pages in our book together. Continents and oceans were introduced today. Please make sure to use pgs. 38 and 39 to help with the homework. After lunch we had math. We switched again and reviewed skip counting. We practiced skip counting in a big circle to emphasize that skip counting is really adding the same number over and over again. The students did an excellent job. We independently finished some book pages and corrected them together. We then had science where we reviewed how animals change and watched a short video about animal life cycles. Our day ended with P.E.

The homework for tonight to to read and study The Enormous Turnip, complete the spelling packet/study, finish the continent/ocean sheet, and finish math 6-3 (which may be already done).
