Assigned Number Word/Number Practice Test :) Practice makes Perfect!

We will be showing our understanding of number words and their relationship to numbers soon in our class. Here is a quiz to practice with your child to help ensure they know the information by test time. :) Mrs. H

Dear Parents, Have I told you lately that I LOVE your children? What a sweet class :)

Today was one of those just plain terrific days for students and teacher! I am so pleased with how everyone has settled in with our routines, and how they are ready to learn each and every time we gather for a lesson. Here is an example of listening and cooperation: I introduced our Scholastic News Let's Find Out newspaper for the very first time! We watched the story on our smartboard about all kinds of friends, then I explained how to do each activity (patterning, counting, and reading a little book). To my amazement, EVERY student gathered their materials in the order I asked them to, and went right to work! Can you spell "i-n-d-e-p-e-n-d-e-n-c-e"? :) I was truly in awe as I watched these little people do exactly what I asked them to do. Of course, some of our little friends tried their best, and may have made a couple of itty-bitty errors...but everyone tried, and everyone felt successful! This is teacher heaven when something like this happens! :) Another thing we did was learn about matching letters to the picture whose sound they begin. Again, my little guys went right to work cutting out the letter tiles and gluing them to the correct pictures. What a fun Friday! Here are pictures of our letter sound activity. Enjoy! :)
 
 
 



Time to go home! Here we are at line-up time :)

Each month, I will post a snack calendar with a suggested date for you to send snacks for 18-20 students.  This is not required, but is very much appreciated if you choose to help out! Thank you in advance!
