week ending 12/21/07

This week the first graders read When Grandpa Visits. They enjoyed telling about special visitors they have at their houses. The students also practiced sorting words with short vowels. The second graders enjoyed The Lady With the Alligator Purse. They especially liked the idea of ice cream fixing the problem of soap bubbles down the throat. The students worked on all 4 sounds the letter y makes and practiced reading words with y. This week all the children reviewed the word wall words. I hope all of you have a relaxing, fun filled holiday break and take some timeout to enjoy some good books. My best to all of you in 2008.
