Lauren and Sonya sang their way through a reading retell today using their glove and the very important elements of who, what, where, when, and why.  Good job girls.  Next time it would be wonderful if you would tell us what you are sharing like :  I'm telling you about the Who.  Keep reading like rockstars.

 

We had a great time yesterday learning our math facts using our new game called "Quiz, Quiz, Trade.  Ask your student to demonstrate for you and keep on practicing at home.

Room 3 is working hard on their new spelling word.  Yeah - Motivation at this table!!!!

 

Here are the videos for this week's vocabulary.  Your students will be bringing home the QR codes for scanning early this week.  Have fun learning the new words.

 

We are working hard on spelling in room 3.  We are using disco spelling to motivate us.  The music is loud and the many voices shouting their spelling words are even louder.  The great dance moves that are inspired by these amazing spellers are just a bonus.  Be sure to ask your student about disco spelling - or - be sure to tell your parents about disco spelling.  It may teach someone something new and it will definitely bring someone a smile.

Wow!  Look at our math fact progress.  Everyone is studying hard and making gain on learning their math facts to automaticity.  I am very proud of everyone and I think everyone is going to become a mathematician in second grade. 

Our Math award winners are celebrating their advanced progress of learning at least 10 or more new facts this week and two are now award winners in automaticity.  They can do 64 math problems in 1:36.  That is amazing.  WAIT!!!  It doesn't stop there.  Now they ware working on mastering their multiplication facts so stay tuned as many branch out into new math territory. 

This is so exciting.  Please congratulate your student.  Ms. McGinley is very proud.
