Week in Review
This week we met Mr. X-Ray and Yetta
Yoyo. We went on an exciting treasure hunt
because X marks the spot. We had many
centers that used treasure to help with sight
words and numbers. We wrote in our
journals about what we would do if we were
pirates. The class has been working so
hard on writing independently. It was great!
During groups, we investigated pictures
with magnifying glasses, practiced writing
the numbers 0-10 in sand, and played many
pirate word and math games including
using eye patches to spell words and
tossing rings onto a pirate hook to model
addition.
