Basketball Jones Assembly
- Basketball Jones came to Redwood this week to spread kindness and encourage good work habits in our students. He had many important messages like: Keep on trying if you don't succeed, have courage to try new things, spread love not hate, stand up and do the right thing!
- This week in Reading we learned how animals and people can work together to help one another. We learned the high frequency words: found, hard, write, woman, & near.
- In phonics, we learned that when words end in y or ey they sound like long e, as in monkey and key.
- This week in math we explored 2D and 3D shapes. We learned to describe the shapes by their attributes like: size, shape color, # of vertices, # of flat faces, and # of edges.
