We are learning trickier sight words! Come, comes, and said don't "play fair" - we just need to "get our mouth ready" and remember them! Here are some links that may help:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ni6J379_UzEhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?...

We have started our geometry and measurement unit. First up? 3D objects!We are talking about and looking at the sides, edges, corners, etc. of 3D shapes and finding lots of classroom objects that are similar. We have been using words like straight, curved, point, top, corners, edges, hollow, solid, roll and flat in order to play I spy and to explain sorting rules. We have noticed that some 3D shapes have triangles, rectangles, circles and squares on their sides! Can your child point out the cylinders, cones, cubes and rectangular prisms? Wow!Here are some videos that help reinforce shape concepts and vocabulary: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYaQoBilylshttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

In math class we have been talking about the numbers that come before and after a number. We spent some time making sure that we really understand the concept of before and after by talking about our classroom routines, getting ready for events like school or hockey and our position in line. Good old Sesame Street had some humorous clips to help solidify the concepts too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLI00pgykjg  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGAalNtkGFE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86CpFj9SaVk
