Started working on her diorama - started as a restaurant, became a hotel, covered the floor and walls, added a second floor, scavenger hunt for materials, started using found objects to create furniture - she is very excited and has lots of ideas.

Libby completed her interactive calendar, read and discussed her vocabulary words, finished her calendar talk activity, worked on a phonics activity using beginning and ending sounds, and watched a science video about ants and how they live and survive in a colony.

Review the sound cards for the letters. show the words this & is. Read This Is a Peach. Work on recalling this and is. Practice sounding out the letters and then blending to make the words. Practice writing the alphabet letters on the white board.

We came back to the pavilion and did a couple of full-body workouts.
We then did a full-body stretch.

This morning, Libby worked on an addition and subtraction color, cut, and paste art activity. She used her number line to solve subtraction within 10 problems that were shown on printed flowers. Then, Libby colored and cut out each flower and glued them onto construction paper coming out of a flower pot that she also colored. This project will continue tomorrow with the addition flowers.

I began with a one-minute awareness phonological exercise (deleting one syllable in a compound word). Libby is getting the hang of it! Next I conducted visual, auditory and blending drills (15 letters and one digraph). Libby missed /â/, /ô/, /sh/, and /d/ but voiced the other sounds correctly. When asked to write the letter that makes the sound, she correctly wrote a, o, d, s but missed sh. She struggled with the blending drill; while she could read the word "cat", when I substituted the initial sound with m, b, p, etc, she was unable to read the word. Moving onto spelling, we reviewed the word "and" and added the word "on". We made the words on paper plates with sand, creating a multis-sensory experience. To conclude, we read a Mo Willem's book, "The Pigeon Wants a Puppy." The remainder of Libby's session was dedicated to her parent-teacher conference.

Libby completed her interactive calendar, read and discussed her old and new vocabulary words, finished calendar talk activity, and went on an ant hill hunt outside.
