Just a Learnin'

We have been working hard over the past couple week learning!Here are some of the things we have been learning about:
Ending Sounds
We worked with partners to sort picture cards by the ending sounds. What fun!

We have also been working in our Math Tubs on Numbers #11-15. Those numbers can be tricky! Thank goodness we have fun games to help us learn them!

We also have been working on addition in our sroom! One day, we got to use gummy bears to help us find the answers to our problems. We used double dice to help us make our problems.

Winter in our classroom

Well 2011 has begun! It is hard to believe that another year is over and especially that another school year is almost halfway over! WOW! We are getting back into our routine at school as well as home I am sure! :)During our Winter unit, one of the authors/illustrators that I absolutely LOVE to use is Jan Brett! Her website, http://www.janbrett.com/, is a great resource to teachers and parents! I have used this website for many different things in my classroom. She offers many different printables including character masks, bookmarks, flashcards, etc. My students love the games that are offered on the website as well! Check out!

We used some of the character masks offered on Jan Brett's website to retell the story The Mitten in our classroom!
