We began the month with a trip to the Hudson Police Department to paint their window for Winter Walk. We have been discussing different holiday celebrations throughout the month. We have focused on developing good sentences using capital letters, nouns, verbs, adjectives and punctuation. We are really getting good at our short vowel sounds and words with short vowels in them. Our adding skills are sharpening and we are beginning to learn the concept of place value. We are learning to represent it with manipulatives and transfer that into paper and pencil. We are learning out the changes of the season and the affect it has on people and animals. The students have enjoyed the many holiday type stories that we have read this month.
