Today was 100's Day and Groundhog's Day! We had a very busy day making 100 cheerio necklaces, sorting 100 buttons in different ways, grouping our collections by 2's, 5,s, 10's, 25's, 50's, and 100's, and making a fun book about Mr. Wolf's Chicken Stew.
Thank you for sending in 100 items with your child for today's activities.
We have started a new program in our classroom called Text Talk. Every two weeks, we will read a new story and learn six new vocabulary words. All the children are encouraged to use these words in their everyday conversations. We tally each time a student uses one of the new words. Don't be alarmed when your children are telling you that they are craving their favorite meal and that it is the most scrumptious meal they have ever eaten. They may even tell you that they are being devious by making a scheme to stay up late.
I will try to post the new words every other week--check back and see what they are and see if you can have your child catch you using them!
On January 23, we had some more authors--boy are the kids keeping me busy publishing!

Jared tells us about animals at the zoo.
Diago also tells us about animals.
Quincy sees many animals, too!
We also had a Mystery Reader. Sean's mother, Melissa, surprised us with a great book with lots a rhyme. The kids enjoyed the visit--she even brought them a special treat--Raisins!
