First, thank you all for your support for Rocky Mount Foundation. Our class came in 2nd place and won 2 free attractions each at Stars and Stripes. They brought home their cards today so if you need something to do over the break. Thanks also for the volunteers that helped to put on the Fun Run. The kids really enjoyed the fun run and the movie today.
This week we have had a Cinderella theme with reading. We five different versions of the story and we discussed point of view. In phonics with worked with ow and ou and students made their first word search which they will exchange with a friend on Word Search Wednesday. In writing we continued to work on our opinion pieces. In math, we worked on addition with number bonds, double digit addition, subtraction, and word problems.
