Shared Reading/Concepts-We will learn about our 5 senses! We will do lots of hands on activities and experiments! We will learn that we don't just feel with our hands but our whole body is covered with skin and we feel with all our whole body even our feet....we may be feeling spaghetti with our feet. We will have smell jars, we will have touch bags where we reach in and have to use our senses to identify the objects, we will blindfold our friends and have an obstacle course in our classroom, we will have an audiologist visit our room and discuss hearing. Whew! This will be a busy but fun week!
Daily 5 Reading-We are continuing to add to our Daily 5 Model & getting closer to launching reading groups!
Daily 5 Math-We are still working on numbers 0-9 learning to represent them in different ways, spell them, and write them correctly.
Writer's Workshop-We are going to be truing our pieces into scrolls or books this week. We will learn that professional writers add on more pages.
Handwriting-We will review the headline, mid line, and baseline as well as vertical, horizontal lines, and backward circles. We will focus on the strokes of forward circles and four kinds of lines.

We had so much fun when Mrs. McMillan blind folded us and took away our sense of sight. We had to use our other senses to get around the room!
We used our sense of touch to reach into bags and try to guess what was inside by using our sense of touch!
We learned we don't just feel with our hands. We have skin all over our bodies. We stepped in spaghetti noodles and felt with our feet! They will never forget it!
An audiologist came and taught us about our sense of hearing! We learned about our outer ear, middle ear, and inner ear. We got to hear on all different levels and learned a lot! Thank you Mrs. Cain!
Our Osmos came! Yay! The boys and girls are in love with them! THANK YOU for making our classroom even more engaging!
We went to the computer lab!
