Today we had some serious discussions about behavior. Some of our friends have had a difficult time walking in the hallway and listening while our teachers were at a meeting. We practiced walking in the hallway and reviewed the rules in our classroom. We know our friends are excited about the long weekend and Spring Break ahead, however we have important learning that we need to be doing in our classroom.
During the Daily 5, our friends practiced read to self and read to someone. Some our friends did a great job, while others are working on practicing what good readers do during this time.
In the afternoon, we read a book about Puerto Rico. We learned about El Coqui, and the song he sings. We learned that if you hear El Coqui singing his song, it will bring you good luck. In Puerto Rico, we also learned that baseball is an important sport, and fruits such as pineapple, apples, bananas, and coconuts are grown there.
During math today, our friends worked on quick images, and using number sentences to show how we added the numbers in our heads. The rest of our friends worked on their story problem assessment for Kindergarten.
We hope everyone has a safe and happy Easter weekend.
