2/4/20- Today we learned about Conjunctions and made a fun Fan that can help us remember the most common ones. The kids even had fun memorizing them! We did a quick worksheet using our conjunction skills. After our hard work I let the kids make a puppet show for me. They worked together and came up with a great story line.
1/28/20- Today we had to combine with another class and the kids were great with it. We did a little science, did a little grammar(discussed Adverbs some more), played a few games. It was a fun productive day!
1/14/20 & 1/21/20- We have been working hard learning what Adverbs are and how we find them in a sentence. We also worked to find the difference between and Adverb and Adjective then we did some comparison worksheets. Once we determined which was which each child got to make their own sentences and share them with the class. While identifying what they use (adverb/adjective) and what it was modifying (verb/noun).
12/10/19- Today we played some grammar games and also did a noun hunt. They were to write a different noun for every letter of the alphabet. It was a fun productive day!
Have a wonderful winter break and I'll see you all in January!!
12/3/19- We did a little sorting today Nouns, Verbs, Adjectives. They sorted the cards and wrote the words in the correct column. Afterwards we talked about contraction words and played a game of memory using contractions the match was the correct version of it. So if you turned over CANNOT you had to match it with CAN'T.
After that we finally got to play Dino Math tracks which they have been asking to play for a few weeks ;)
11/19/19- We have started learning about VERBS. We read a poem with lots of verbs in it, we read a book to tell us all about verbs. Then we did a worksheet to double underline the verb in each sentence. Afterwards we played a verb board game. There are all kinds of pictures on the game board and whichever picture it lands on you have to make a sentence with a present tense verb, then on the way back on the board you make a sentence using a past tense verb. This was lots of fun to get our verb practice in.
11/12/19- We are wrapping up adjectives, today we made a menu where we had to add in as many adjectives as possible to describe the foods we were trying to sell. The kids had lots of fun with this! This would make a great sample for your charter school if you need one ;)
11/5/19- Today we continued on about adjectives. We learned that adjectives are like magnets to nouns and pronouns. We did a fun cut and glue worksheet sticking adjectives and nouns together. We also did a page where it described and item : The YELLOW fruit. and we could draw any item that fit that category. There was lots of adjective practice today.
10/29/19- We started learning about adjectives today. We read a funny little comic about Beowulf at the zoo. There were lots of adjectives being used to describe all the animals. Then we did a worksheet and glued on some objects that we could describe: rough foil, smooth fabric, fragrant flowers, soft fuzzy ball. After that we did one more worksheet where we had to describe different objects by telling what kind, which one, how many, whose, and then write a sentence using the noun and an adjective.
Finally we wrapped up class by playing swat the word on the board. All the words were adjectives. Lots of ways to practice what an adjective was today.
10/22/19- Today we played called spelling battleship. We reviewed our nouns and pronouns and then used them in our battleship game with our partners. This is a great way to review but to also work on some chart skills as well. We also played a game called Pop for sight words. You pull out sight words and read them correctly but if you pull out a POP card you have to put them all back in.
10/15/19- We continued on pronouns today. We reviewed what we knew and then did 2 worksheets. One was covering nouns with pronouns and the other was writing nouns under our pronoun pepperoni pieces on our pizza. Then the kids got to color their pizzas too.
10/8/19- Pronouns today! We read a book about pronouns, discussed what they really were. Then we painted a picture of Beowulf and wrote some nouns and pronouns on his paper. We also did a little worksheet to figure out the differences between nouns and pronouns.
After our grammar fun, we played Dino Math Tracks. This requires counting by 1's, 10's, 100's, 1000's. Lots of fun counting was done during this game.
10/1/19- Nouns was our focus for today. We started by reading a book about nouns, then went on a noun hunt in the center. We wrote down the nouns in the correct column...person, place thing. Afterwards, we played a word search game to work on sight words. Then as a reward we played headbands, which was a great way to review nouns as the game is all NOUNS!
9/10/19- Today in Grammar we read a little book on manners. Just a cute book to help us remember how to treat others kindly. Then we read about Beowulf the dog. He is the cute character we will be having help us this year with some of our grammar skills. It's pretty silly to learn from a dog that can read! :)
Then we had a little fun with words, first we got to write as many words as we wanted on the whiteboard. It is so exciting to be able to write on the giant whiteboard! Then we talked about NOUNS. We continued by drawing pictures of all different nouns. We discovered that mommy and daddy and cats, dogs, cars, trains, clouds, etc etc etc are all nouns! Pretty exciting stuff!
