Day 42

Good evening,

Calendar: Today’s calendar was led by Bryana. Great job Bryana!



Phonics: Today, the students were introduced to the “U/u” sound, actions and songs. Students viewed a video called “Geraldine learns the /u/ sound.” Students then brainstormed a list of words that contain the “U/u” sound.


French: Please see Mlle. Jessica’s blog for more information.

Journals: Students completed journal entries about a list of words that contain the “U/u” sound. Students practiced listing the words from the top of the page to the bottom of the page, and included pictures.



Lunch/ Recess 1

Math: Students have the patterning test on Thursday. Today, they reviewed the pattern terminology that we have been using such as the pattern core, attributes, and how to name patterns using letters. Today, students practiced identifying what comes next in a pattern. Students created patterns that included the students in the class. For example, one pattern was an AB pattern (girl, boy). Another pattern was the AAB pattern (boy, boy, girl). Students completed a practice activity in Math Makes Sense to further their understanding.

Unit of Inquiry: Today students were focused on the sense of sight. We read a book called “Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?” Students then completed a sequencing activity to show what animals and characters they saw in order in the story.
