The students did a fantastic job last week reviewing nouns and learning about verbs. We spent our mornings talking about what "things" were nouns and putting "action words," or verbs, to them. For instance, a dog jumps and a kid plays. We created an "Angry Verbs" bulletin board for the front hallway of school. Each scholar decorated an "angry bird" or "pig" and we wrote verbs on them - creating "Angry Verbs!" It was fun and has launched their playtime imaginations in new directions... I've never seen so many beautifully drawn, freehand birds in my life!
This week, we are going to have more fun with the following:
Language Arts: We will begin to discuss adjectives and how they are used to describe nouns. By making observations about the world around us, we will use our senses to talk and write about things.
We will also be continuing our review of our phonics series books. Last week, we reread Sam and Al in a round-robin fashion. One at a time, each child read a sentence from the book as we went around the room. This week, we will be rereading Six Kids.
Phonics: Our spelling words this week reiterate the "short i" sound. Number 5 and 6 are more complex words. Numbers 7-10 are review words from the Dolch List 1. The spelling test is on Friday.
Math: We will be finishing the chapter on addition and will be using our skills counting pennies to help add up coins. Our math test in on Friday.
