Not only did your adorable kiddos exchange their Valentine's Day cards, but they also celebrated the 100th Day of School! Can you believe there is only 77 days left? I can't!
In Fundations, we continued to practice tapping out and blending CVC words. Your kiddos are now beginning to spell CVC words that are dictated to them.
This week, I performed the story "Baby Echo Finds Echo at Last." The children LOVE these stories. After I read and acted out the story, I asked the following questions:
- Who was in this story?
- Where did it take place?
- What was Baby Echo's problem? What did he do about it?
- How did things turn out? What happened in the end?
- How did Baby Echo feel at the beginning of the story?
- How did Baby Echo feel at the end of the story?

Finally, the children practiced writing CVC words on their dry erase boards that we tapped out together. We will continue to work on this! I am so proud of them- this is very challenging!
- Center 1: Children used dot markers to count 100 gumballs!
- Center 2: Children used goggly eyes, pompoms, buttons, etc to make ten groups of ten on their counting mats .
- Center 3: Children used Unifix cubes to make ten groups of ten.
- Word Work:"If I can Spell" CVC Mats: Children read a CVC word and wrote three more CVC words by changing the initial sound.
- Writing Center: Children wrote a true story in their writing folders.
- Reading Center: Children tapped out CVC words and read easy to read sentences to match each word.
- Math Center: Children played Growing and Disappearing Train.
