Volunteers: During the month of December I would love to have parent volunteers come in periodically to read Christmas books to the class. Part of the social studies curriculum is learning about traditions, and cultural stories. If you have a Christmas book/story that is part of your family tradition I would love it if you could come and share it with our class. The best times to come read to the class are at 11:00 or 1:00. Please let me know if you would be interested.
Curriculum overview:
English Language Arts: We have been really working at Story Mapping books that we have read. We are now focusing on applying those skills to our own writing. This week students are starting a new piece of writing that has a Christmas theme.
Math: Grade 1s have been working hard at understanding how to represent numbers 11-20. We are working on showing those numbers in various groupings.
Math: Grade 2s have been working at estimation and counting. They have learned and practiced how to make a good estimate and then count the group of objects using 2s, 5s, or 10s.
Science: We just began a new unit: The Five Senses. So far we have just done an intensive look at our sense of sight.
Religion: We will begin discussing the Advent season this week.
French: We are working on our numbers up to 12.

Thanks for the weekly updates Ms. Klatt. I always look forward to reading them. The students are so busy during the day doing so many interesting activities. By the time they get home they don't always remember everything they did. It is great to know so much about what is happening in the classroom. The pictures and links to videos are a really nice touch. Thanks for doing such a great blog.
Thanks! I'm so glad to hear that it's useful and informative.
