“Do” and “you” were our two new sight words this week. We had a “snowball” fight after writing down a question: “Do you like/ have?” After throwing the “snowballs” for awhile, each student picked one up and answered the question: I do like/have or I do not like/have. It was a fun introduction to opinion writing as well!

We read
The Mitten, a new class favorite winter story! As we were introduced to many new characters, we practiced retelling the story as a class and also with our own mittens!
Our class compared and contrasted
The Mitten with another Jan Brett story,
The Hat. There was one character who was featured in both stories, Hedgie the hedgehog! Check out these adorable hedgehogs! To learn more about both these stories, ask your child to “retell” both of them to you using their mittens and storyboards!

| I love all how different and AWESOME their Hedgies turned out! |

Check out Leah’s storyboard!
It tells the beginning, middle and end of the story, The Hat. |
In our new journals, we chose our favorite story and wrote why we liked it! They had different opinions and wrote why they liked the story.
 |
| Noah liked The Hat because all the animals run away from the girl. |
As one of our Daily 4 centers, we made word families and built words that rhyme!
