Week in Review

 We had a wacky week with tricky schedule changes last week but we made it through!

The kids had a blast watching School House Rock's "Conjunction Junction" (more than once!)

We did a super quick activity to plant a zucchini plant in our room! 

 We are using our plant as a way to practice informational writing during Work on Writing. These guys are choosing that option during W.O.W. :)

 We practiced matching the text to our illustrations for Goldilocks and the Three Bears. 

We learned a funny phonics chant to help us remember Mr. Y steals the sounds of e and i at the end of a word. 

 We practiced putting the months of the year in order and sorted them by season.

 We discussed the elements of a calendar and worked in groups to build our own April Calendar.

 We also filled out our own calendars and filled them in with some "important dates" from our classroom.

 We were so proud!

Have a great week!
