The past few weeks we have been working SO hard!
It has been crazy weather, if I do say so myself.
We have had 2 snow days in the last 3 weeks - crazy!
For 3 weeks in a row, we had 4 day weeks.
It has been nice having a surprise day off, but I'm not going to lie...I was very bored on those days.
A few weeks ago we learned the rules about soft G and soft C:
We have also been working on silent e and long vowels.
We used this poem to help us remember what the silent e does.
When we were learning about long a, we made these "snakes" and hung them from the ceiling.
The snakes all have long a words on them.
We will be finishing our long vowels this week with lone e, spelling ee and ea.
This week marked our half way mark of the school year!
To celebrate, it was spirit week!
Since we didn't have school Monday, the first day of spirit week was Tuesday and it was crazy fan day. We had fans of books and sports. It was wonderful! :) I wore my husbands 49ers shirt in support of the super bowl...too bad they lost. Good game though. Should have worn my Maverick's shirt or my Miles Austin jersey (go Cowboys!) ;)
This picture is definitely my favorite.
Fake injury day! I told them to point to their booboo that hurts the most and make a sad face.
HAH! Love it.
Pajama day! Who doesn't love PJ day? I know I do!
We got to make a silly face for this picture...we do have some pretty silly faces here. :)
Friday was wear the school colors...
And it was crazy hair day!!! This day was my favorite. I woke up really not wanting to get ready and then I remember that it was crazy hair day!
On Friday, we also celebrated Groundhog Day!
Apparently, spring is coming early this year!
Let's hope he's right, even though it's hard to believe when I look out the window and see 10 feet of snow! Okay I'm exaggerating, but I wasn't a week ago. :)
We learned a song in music class about Groundhog Day, and they insisted I take a video of it, so I did and I promised that I would put it on the class blog, so here it is. Don't mind my lack of singing (I'm basically tone deaf). I've got some pretty good singers in the class though!
This week we are starting our Valentine's Day crafts! I can't believe February is already here!
Thank you parents for EVERYTHING you do! You are all SO wonderful!
