 What a LUCKY and BLESSED month! πŸ€


In ELA we are finishing up Unit 7: Holidays and Celebrations. Throughout Unit 7 we have been continuing to work on adding, deleting, and substituting sounds, and the word families -in, op, and -ug. Our comprehension goals have been: identifying main topic and retelling key details, describing the connection between two individuals, events, ideas or information in a text, identifying similarities/differences between two texts on the same topic, identifying parts of a book, describing the relationship between illustrations and the text, and identifying the reasons an author gives to support points. In grammar we explored using prepositions and using inflections to find out the meaning of unknown words. We work each day on our fine motor and writing skills! Sight words we have learned so far are I, like, the, we, go, see, can, she, is, a, has, he, little, play, and, you, big, with, for, no, jump, one, are, have, said, and two. 

In Math we worked through our chapter on subtraction! We did an amazing job at learning how to take away! Throughout this chapter we enjoyed using many manipulatives and pictures to help us learn hands on! After our Chapter 7 test we began money! We have since then learned penny, nickel, dime, and quarter! We are taking our time with this chapter as we become familiar with each coin and counting on! 

In Religion we continue to practice the Sign of the Cross, the Hail Mary, the Our Father, and our morning/afternoon/meal time prayers! We spent this month learning about Lent, The Three Days, and Easter! We enjoyed spending time with Jesus during this Lenten season by attending the Stations of the Cross. We loved reading our Bible story of the empty tomb on Easter Sunday! 

This month we learned about our Solar System! Mrs. Ford and I were blown away by how much they knew about space! We also were very lucky to end our solar system unit with a solar eclipse! 


A BIG THANK YOU!! This table has been such an amazing addition to our room!
