Sorry for no post yesterday, but I was home sick.  Also, please remember that there is no school tomorrow.

Today we learned the letter Ff.

We pretended that we were squishing the air out of our inflatable fish.

We also learned the word families ill, all and ell.

We made words like fall, fell, ball, Jill, pill and well.

That means, please add page 29 and 30  to the word family flash cards.

Finally, in Art today we made our own version of Van Gogh's Starry Night by doing a crayon resist painting.  Pictures to come next week.

Have a great weekend!
