Language Arts

We've been doing lots of writing in our School Helper books. We interview people in the school about their job and then write something we learned about them. We have begun Writer's Workshop with the children and they are working in their writer's folder several times a week.

We continue to practice learning sounds in Jolly Phonics. We also play games sounding out words. We continue to work in predictable stories at a beginning level, and the kids are doing great!

We are writing a class book about things we are grateful for. We read a Native American Thanksgiving Address about appreciation for all the things on Earth that support the people. We are also reading
I Know an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Pie and will act the story out with a paper version of the story elements that the children colored.

The only photo we have is of the children learning some Jolly Phonics games on the Smart Board.
