Mrs. Borden and Mrs. Jones’ Newsletter (March 2, 2020)
Handwriting/Writing: We are continuing to sequence using: first, next, last. We will be looking at how food is made along
with things that we like to eat and drink.
We will continue to review capital and lowercase letter formations and
we have reviewed A-H so far. Most of our writing has been using a period or an exclamation point for our punctuation but we have been talking
about questions.
Reading: We will be continuing our unit on “Why do we like stories?” and we will
continually be reviewing: setting, plot,
and characters. We have been trying
to pick out problem and solution when
we write and read as well. We will also
tie in our sequencing from our writing to review reading stories. Please continue to read each night for the book log and talk about the stories you
read at home.
Math: We will finish up our joining together unit (Addition).
We have been using objects, pictures, and classmates to act out and
model addition sentences. We are also
very pleased to announce that we have met our Spring Math goal of Missing Numbers 0-20 as well as another
goal of counting objects and write the number
0-10. We are now working on counting
objects and writing the number 0-20. We had some ice pops and ice cream cups to
celebrate!!
Science/Social
Studies: Our Dr. Seuss celebration week was a success! We had several guest readers, tried Green
Eggs and Ham, did some predictions, graphing, writings, and many different
activities and centers all based around Dr. Seuss. It was a blast! J
