Games
Games, games, games! We use games to learn and practice lots of skills. Games can encourage critical thinking, can take the drudgery out of practice and can boost our social skills. We love to play games. Below you will find photos of us playing a math game called Bunny Hop to learn and practice navigating on a number line and a word work game called Sight Word Bingo to help us learn and practice sight words. Sight Word Bingo is available for purchase at Lakeshore Learning for $10 if you are looking for fun ways to help your child practice sight words. It comes in three levels so you can choose the level that works best for your child.

Sight Word Bingo
Right before break, someone asked me about the Bingo games in our stations. I decided to take that opportunity to get out one of the games and play it with the whole crew. They loved it! After that they were playing the game all the time during stations. Sometimes you just have to be reminded about things that you enjoy. It happens to all of us. Sight Word Bingo is a fun way to practice those sight words that you just have to know. There are several levels and variations available. I got ours at Lakeshore Learning.

Our new sight words are: want, going, of, little, saw
Previous words include: and, for, like, day, her
We are working on learning to spell these words correctly. We can read them, now we must learn to write them. These are great words to point out to your child when they are reading or to have them practice spelling at home, too.
Ask your child to explain how we practice these words at school using the Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check method.

Sight Words
We have begun to work on learning to spell some of our sight words
correctly. We can read them but now we need to work on writing them correctly. We will be learning 5 words every two weeks
(we will take two weeks because we won't be able to fit in our practice
time every day due to Library visits and shortened days). We will begin
by noticing any unusual things about how each word is spelled and then
we will write them using the Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check method. By
the end of this week, your child should be able to explain this method
to you. We will also create and write sentences using these words. The
five words we are currently learning are on our
word wall cards that we have on our desks during writing and all students will be expected to learn these words and
spell them correctly in their writing. As we get better at learning
words, we may pick up our pace and work on more words at a time. So soon
you can expect to see words like wuz, hav, lik, wint, litl, uv, git and
more disappear from your child's writing.
Our new sight words are: and, like, for, day, her

Ashlyn is Getting Better
Ashlyn came to school this afternoon for a few hours after her doctor's appointment. She will be recovering for about a month from her concussion. She brought in some things from all of her hospital visits to show us. It was so interesting. We loved seeing her and hearing her story. She will need to be extra careful to avoid any further head injuries until she heals. So we will all be very careful around her, too.
