Books We Read
Don't Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late!
The Pigeon Wants a Dog!
Imagine a Night
Weekly Centres
Printing M
We added "M" to our printing skills this week, which was really helpful for students in our room whose name starts with M!
Pattern Painting
Using three different colours, we created multi-coloured pattern strips, where we could create patterns with stripes, shapes, or any other things we could think of.
The Pigeon Can...
After reading so many books about what the Pigeon can't do, we decided to come up with an idea of what the Pigeon CAN do. We had pigeons eating ice cream, pigeons getting married, pigeons driving cars and pigeons inviting people to their house!
Flower Shop
Every group had a chance to use our Drama Centre in their colour group, playing "Flower Shop" with all of the neat items inside.
Other Things We Did
"O" and "U" were added to our list of Jolly Jingles, and we noticed that some letter sounds can sound an awful lot alike!
Two new sight words made it in to the sight word board! We also talked about how, while Sight Words are important, they aren't the most important thing in a story, so we need to calm down a bit when we find them. =0)
Mr. McCullough showed us a paper man and explained how hurting somebody else's feelings is like making tiny rips. We fixed the paper man with tape but, after a while, we noticed that we could still see the rips, kind of like how we remember when somebody has made us feel bad. At the end of the talk, we decided it was better to not hurt feelings at all, and that sorry isn't going to fix everything.
We talked about the difference between using our imagination and describing things that actually happen.
