This week we read the story If Your Monster Won't Go To Bed. This story gave us step by step directions on how to put our monster to bed.
We worked very hard on retelling this story with key details. This is a SUPER important skill that all readers should know how to do. We will be working on this all year. For now, when we finish reading a book at home ask us to retell the story to you. Here are copies of our anchor charts to help you know what we need to include with our retelling.
In math we played a game, Feed My Monster. The thing about this monster is he only likes to eat combinations of 10.
First, we would flip over one card. Before we could flip over the second card, we had to tell Mrs. Wanke what number we would need to find next to make 10 for our monster.
If we found a match we fed it to the monster. If we did not find a match, we had to turn both cards back over.
We loved feeding the monster!
Once we get really good at combinations of 10, we will use this to help us mentally make 20! Stay tuned!
