Today’s daily language review focused on verb tense and pronouns. Next, Jonathan worked on coloring his cover page and his four illustrations to finish publishing his writing piece. He did a terrific job! We enjoyed the next chapter in our Stink The Incredible Shrinking Kid book in which Stink shared his Presidents’ Day report about his favorite president, James Madison. For phonics work today we reinforced long a with a Brain Pop Jr. on the subject. Jonathan scored a 5/5 on the hard quiz. Jonathan also scored 100% on his word sort assessment for sort 1 (short a and long a). It was nice to see him more confident with the “tricky” ones today. In his iReady textbook, we read page 85 and discussed sensory words. We talked about words that could be used to capture each sense and what some of these words help us picture in our minds. We will focus on sensory words in our reading selections. We completed a crossword puzzle to practice antonyms (without a word bank). Jonathan did well and needed help with “thick” and “buy”. Finally, for “Fun Friday”, we enjoyed playing an educational board game which focused on tasks including rhyming, vocabulary, identifying parts of speech, and naming the plural to the singular noun. Religion: Today we wrapped up lesson 16. We reviewed the Seven Sacraments and Jonathan answered questions related to this lesson we’ve covered this week. He scored 5/5 on his end of lesson assessment.
