From Elise's class: Hello! Today we talked about taking turns and sharing. We played hot potato and took turns passing a beanie bag. I read Llama Llama Time to Share. We created a big mural picture and each person contributed something to it by waiting their turn and drawing on it one at a time. We made the letter B with play-doh today and then created other objects. No German today. 

Why is sharing and taking turns important?

Elise- sharing is nice...because it's nice and respectful 

Next Tuesday is Fancy Day!

From Elise's Reading Club: Hello On Monday, we worked on the word blue.  We also talked about rhyming words. We drew a picture on yellow paper and then filled in the blank for the sentence.. I go to the ____. On Tuesday, we worked on the word up. We used 'up' in a sentence. On Wednesday, we worked on the words red, go. On Thursday, we worked on distinguishing between vowels and consonants. We discussed which ones are vowels and how the rest are consonants. We also worked on beginning sounds. There is a game where they put picture cards in little tubs that start with that letter. The girls started to sort out some picture cards. Also, everyday we went over flash cards for the sight words we've talked about so far. We do this one-on-one. We are practicing finding color words by sight on worksheets and coloring that part of the picture and adding color tissue. Once we learn all the colors, you will see the papers they have done.
