During Literacy Circle and Small Group this week we introduced segmenting words. We broke apart the beginning sounds of words from the rest of the word. This was a big challenging at the beginning of the week, but as the week progressed the children really seemed to grasp the concept. We also learned about the letter Ss.
During Math Circle and Small Group this week we added fingers to make 5, modeled stories added 1 more and introducing story problems with the number 5. The children really enjoyed making up their own stories beginning with a few of something and then adding to solve a problem.
Our Story Time book this week was called Otis By Loren Long. Ask your child who Otis was and who he became good friends with? (Hint:Otis is a little red tractor and his friend is a baby calf).
We had a great discussion about how Jesus wants us all to have inner peace, how jesus came to show us how important it is to be peaceful in our homes and in school and in our daily lives. We can all do kind things, be loving and ask for forgiveness when sometimes we may not make the best choices or hurt someone unintentionally.
Hope to see many of your at this Sunday's 9:30am Mass. January 28th, here at Blessed Sacrament Church to begin the celebration of Catholic Schools week!
