After editing the wacky "lonely r" words in our morning message (to add a bossy r vowel), we participated as performers and audience members in the first dress rehearsal for the concert. After indoor recess, we had literacy centers and guided reading, then enjoyed some classroom phys ed games. We hunted for word wall words in our "Ten Buddies" poem, then showed our student teacher how we practice subitizing. In the afternoon we were very excited for fun lunch, then afterward worked on our 'ten buddies' squirrel problem. We 'superstormed' with the other class on a special surprise project and finished our day with that.
Good luck to tonight's performers!
Sight Words (We are working with these in our weekly poem)
We are focusing on "bossy r" and how it turns 'e,' 'i' and 'u' into growling pirate sounds!

Concert Info
We are getting excited for the upcoming school concert performances! The students are working very hard and sounding great! Students are asked to attend their performances wearing a solid-coloured (no prints or logos) yellow, orange, red, or green t-shirt, and dark pants. If you do not have a solid coloured t-shirt, you could always try turning one with a small graphic inside out and that should do the trick. Thank you for helping them to prepare!
Students with last names A-L will be performing Wednesday evening. There will also be an A-L dress rehearsal Wednesday morning at 9:00 am. Students with last names M-Z will be performing Thursday evening, with a dress rehearsal Thursday afternoon at 1:00 pm. Relatives who are not attending the evening performance are welcome to attend the dress rehearsals! :)
