Silent E!

This week, we focused on learning about the silent e.  Silent e makes no sound...but changes the vowel sound in a word.  We made magic wands and transformed words with a "Magic e."  We made ninja masks and went around spelling words "like a ninja" after watching a fun song called "Silent e is a ninja."  We also watched another song about "Super e" and then used our super spelling powers to transform words into something new.  We did many activities to practice our new silent e skills during centers in addition to other fun things!  We also had some more fun with St. Patrick's Day during center time!  Enjoy the pictures!

St. Patrick's Day

We had a fun holiday week celebrating St. Patrick's Day!  Our activities had lots of shamrocks, leprechauns, and gold!  We wrote about who was worth more to us than gold.  We made ourselves into leprechauns and wrote about when we feel lucky.  And we wrote about what our luckiest day would be like.  We had so much fun sharing those ideas with our friends!  Enjoy the pictures!
