Dec 5

 Today we:

    • we talked about our weekends for question of the day 
    • we learned a new lively letter: "th" (math, think, thin, moth) 
    • we had recess outside! (finally!) please make sure to send your child with warm outdoor clothes
    • in gym we practiced kicking into a net
    • we wrote sentences about emotions and about what we like 
    • our number of the day was 12 and we added a new part to our number of the day routine which was identifying if the number is even or odd 
    • in calendar we found out we have been in school for 60 days! 
    • in math we played 'headbands' where we asked questions about the number on our card to help us guess what they number is 

    Reminder: 
    - Tomorrow is "dress like you are going on vacation"
    -Thursday is "wear red and/or green" day! 

    In student's backpacks you will find our kindness bingo sheet that we made last week! Students can try to get a bingo or fill out the whole sheet and then bring it back to school for a kindness certificate and a sticker! 

    Something to practice at home: 
    • Parents give students a sentence and students practice counting the words in a sentence (they can be silly!)
    • ex: "I eat popcorn with my feet" = 6 words! 

    Another thing to practice at home is writing sentences! Here are our steps: 
    • say your sentence out loud and count how many words are in your sentence 
    • draw a line for each word 
    • start your sentence with a capital 
    • chop up the sounds of each word to help us write 
    • remember a sentence always has a complete idea 
    • end a sentence with a period

Welcome! 2022-2023 School Year

Welcome! We are so excited to be starting the 2022-2023 year! This year, our whole school will continue to use Blogger to make our daily agenda posts.  To make it easier for you, you can add the blog right on to the home screen of your phone or iPad by following the directions on the “Adding Blogger to Home Screen” document Mrs. Brinson sent out on August 26 in her first Northern Lights News email. We hope this makes the communication between home and school easier and opens up great conversations between you and your child.  The CBE and Mrs. Brinson will be communicating information to you through School Messenger. To make sure you receive these email messages, please SUBSCRIBE using the email address that the school has on file. (If you change your email address, you must inform the school and then re-subscribe or the system won’t work.)

September 13, 2022

The question of the day was "do you prefer cats or dogs" and we talked about what prefer means. In English we worked on the sound 'b' like ball and brainstormed words that start with the sound 'b' and words that have the sound 'b' in the middle or at the end. We worked on phonemic awareness and listening for sounds in a word. We had our first whole school fire drill and identified some "glows and grows" (things we did well and things we are going to keep practicing). We had a lesson to learn about visually impaired students to help us learn about a classmate in our partner class. In gym we played with scoops and hoola hoops. For health we continued learning how to be a good friend and worked on what we could say if we want to share or take turns. In math we practiced counting. We ended the day with centers, closing circle and an intro into the learning commons! Starting next week, our class will have library every Wednesday!  We are starting
