Wow, I can't believe it has been a week since we posted!  I apologize for the gap!  With parent teacher conferences last Thursday and Monday nights until 7:00 and no school Friday it was easy to let other things take the place of blogging time.

We're back though!

Today, we worked on telling time in math, talked about voting in social studies, and recorded our song about the branches of government (check it out!) This afternoon we listened to our story for this week (a play about Charlotte's Web) and worked on our sequencing skills.

-Miss Staudt

Our learning goals for today:
How do you read a clock?
How do you put the events of a story in order?
