We had a wonderful time listening to reading today and making text-to-self connections to the story 'Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.' As stated in the newsletter, both at home and school, I am hoping that our focus can be on listening to reading by an adult, and working on comprehension, vocabulary building and making connections to reading. In Math, we continued to learn about shapes. Today we searched for pictures of different shapes around the room, identifying if they were 2D or 3D as well as identifying different attributes like faces, sides, vertices, and angles. We continued to talk about citizenship during our UOI period. Tomorrow we are hoping to begin writing a class book based on the story 'If Everyone Did That.' We will have to see if we have enough time though, because we have two very exciting parent guests coming in to talk about their roles in our community. We are very excited!
