We will focus on the vocabulary words within the story (fret, ointment, contagious, lawn, sob) and answer these questions:

1) Where does the story take place?

2) Who are the main characters?

3) What is the problem? How was the problem solved?

Literacy Jobs   

 Handwriting: Upper/Lowercase C Stroke Review
 Writer's Workshop: Makes Sense
Today's lesson focuses on making sure when we write a sentence, it makes sense. I will read the following sentence that I wrote. I the swng. I will point out that I left out the word like and that we always need to reread our sentence so it makes sense! (A couple more will be modeled before I send the kids out to write their own.)

KinderMath: Compare Numbers to 10
First, the kids will be reviewing the comparison of numbers to 10 by working with sets of images, sounds, and numerals to 10. Next, I will read How Many Snails? A Counting Book and ask questions like Are there more grey clouds or white clouds? Are there fewer big clouds or little clouds? Are there fewer yellow or pink flowers? Are there more fish with their mouths open or shut? etc. Lastly, the kids will listen to sets of sounds and tell me if they hear more claps vs. stomps, knocks vs. clicks, etc. This allows children to realize we use comparison in our lives everyday, and it’s not solely dependent on numerals. 

Spanish Class

Today, they will review each child's Spanish name, and introduce number & color names. D.E.A.R time today: 8:25
