Wow! This is the first time I've been 24 hours late posting. Yesterday, I divided students into 4 reading groups and met with them separately during center time to review letter names and sounds and to practice reading the high frequency words that are on our word wall (am, blue, can, like, is, red, and yes). Students brainstormed things that are red and then wrote the sentence, "A ____ is red." and drew a picture to illustrate their sentence. We are working on sentence structure -- a capital letter at the beginning and punctuation at the end, as well as spaces between the words. Students formed the numbers 1-5 out of clay and we played a review game in which I rolled a die, students identified the number, and then they built a tower with that many cubes. Thanks to the parents who helped yesterday!
