Today Gracyn wrote her spelling words one time each. This week the words end in -ing and also a few number words "three, four, and five". Her bonus word is "number". We completed her morning work and then she wrote about Mother's Day in her daily journal. We watched a clip on spring. Gracyn had to fill in a word web about spring things she saw in the clip. She wrote "birds, butterflies, flowers, rain, owls, sun, green grass, and ducks". Then she had to use the word web to answer questions about spring. These questions were "In spring I see..., In spring I hear..., and In spring I smell...". She had to choose two words for each question. She did great! Next we watched a movie by Magic School Bus on plants growing. We learned about what plants need to grow and how they grow. In reading she read me the level E book about Crazy Cakes. She showed her mom some of the crazy cakes she read about. She is really doing well in reading!
