Monday:  Today we went to art and made a calendar for 2012.  In math we practiced our shapes and talked about the corners and sides of triangles, rectangles, and squares.  We read The Mitten Tree, answered a question about the story and made our own mittens.  We went to music today and practiced keeping a steady beat to the music.
Tuesday:  At the computer lab we played a game called Marble Addition.  Today we went to music and practiced a song and dance.  We read Snowmen at Night. We made a snowman and wrote about what our snowman does at night.  We also practiced rhyming and real/make believe.  We practiced our sight words he and she.  In math we used the minus sign to practice subtracting with unifix cubes.

Wednesday:  We read a book called A Very Special Snowflake and practiced writing words that rhyme with snow.  In math, we colored an AB and ABC pattern.  We also practiced using the words more, less, and equal to describe colored circles.  We read the story The Little Snowflake and made a project of the character of the snowflake.  Today in P.E. we did the racecar track.  We also went to art and drew a silly snowman.

Thursday:  We practiced writing one and two-digit numbers today.  It was pajama day.  We went to P.E. today and played with the fitness dice.  Today we read The Biggest, Best Snowman.  Today we wrote words in the “-est” word family.  We had writer’s workshop.  We read Sadie and the Snowman.  We learned about Martin Luther King, Jr.
