Friendship Flowers, Vietnamese Writing and Skip Counting by 10's

Even though it was only a 4 day week, it felt like a very long week. The kids are slowly getting into the routine of things. We got a lot done this week. In Vietnamese Language Arts (VLA), we continued practicing our sight words and had a test over it on Friday. Next week we will start to learn the colors in Vietnamese and have a test over the words in 2 weeks. Not only did we have our first Vietnamese test for the first time, but we also wrote in our VLA journals for the first time. The kids did a very good job on these. Journal writing is an independent activity. I really stress to the kids that they need to have neat handwriting when writing.

 We have been practicing skip counting by 10’s in math. We did lots of different activities. Next week, we will skip count by 5’s.

 Mrs. Skalaban continues to teach good manners, how to be a good friend and respect. We read a fun book about a fox trying to catch and make a friend and then made our own friendship flowers.

 In Social studies, we made a map of our own house.

Please don't forget to join us on celebrating Mid-Autumn Festival at school next Friday, September16th! It will be fun!
