What We've Been Up To

We have been busy learning lots of new things! Here's a few pictures from the last couple of weeks.

Last week we learned that 'ow' and 'oa' appear in words like 'boat' and 'row. We created our own boats and made lists of 'ow' and 'oa' words. If you want the pattern for this craft, let me know and I'll post!

I've never had a group of kids understand odd and even better than this year's group. I found these adorable charts over at The Lemonade Stand and just had to recreate them. They go along with a book, but I didn't have it so we just talked about these two characters and then watched a cute odd and even video from School Tube. 

We are busy reading words with two vowels in them, which of course means we are also busy watching the Starfall video that goes along with this skill. I have heard that song OVER and OVER and OVER.

We are learning sums of 10. 

Several weeks ago we talked about the sound of /dge/ and wrote stories/sentences about words that contained this sound. Clipart on the pink paper is from the amazing Ashley Hughes!

Hope y'all are having a GREAT week! :)
