This week was jam packed! We worked so hard to get our work finished after we got back from our unexpected long weekend.
One of our favorite parts of the day is our chapter book read aloud time. This week we started a new chapter book series: The Magic Tree House! We are really enjoying learning about Dinosaurs with Annie and her brother Jack. The video below is a "book trailer" showing various books in the series.

In math we continued building our number sense by learning some more games. One of our favorites is Make a Ten Match. To play you get a deck of cards and remove the K, Q, and J. Then place all the cards face down in rows of four. Take turns flipping over two cards and if they equal 10 you made a match!
Another way you could play to help build math skills would be to have them laid out four in a row face down and then flip two over. If you can tell how much they equal together you get to keep them! This is a great game to play to help build beginning addition skills.

In reading we spent a lot of time discussing characters and used this to help build our writing skills too. We brainstormed characters we like and characters we can write about. The picture shows the anchor chart we use to help us if we need ideas. The video is our parts of a story song.
