A Snowy Day

• Today in class, we used the story The Snowy Day to guide our fun! We started off by reading about a boy named Peter that wakes up to a lot of snow outside. He goes on a long walk and enjoys playing in the snow in many ways. Then, we mixed up glue and shaving cream to make our own snowy day scene with Peter. We also watched the short movie Snowy Day and compared the movie to the original story.
• Next week's focus in reading is: How is life different than it was long ago? We will read the stories Life At Home, Long Ago and Now,  and From Horse to Plane. 
• We will learn how to use commas when writing dates such as: Saturday, June 6, 2018.
• Our new High Frequency Words are: ago, boy, girl, how, old, people
• In math next week, we will be grouping objects by 10's and 1's, counting up by 1's and 10's on an open number line, and finding missing numbers on a 120 chart. We will quiz topic 7 next week as well. 
• Glow Walk Forms are due back to school by 1/31. The Glow Walk is 1/9 from 7-8:30pm. Please see the yellow flyer that went home last Thursday for more info!
