Mrs. Hake’s Friday, Feb. 16th edition CLASSROOM 2016-2017 news Sneak Peak Week in Review: at Next Week This week we met ay friends and used this vowel team to write new words! In math, we had fun estimating, sorting and patterning hearts of all kinds. We wrote about things that we love and why. To help improve our fine motor skills, we used chop sticks to pick up candy hearts and sort them and made patterns by stringing heart beads. We loved our chocolate box sight word game too! We really enjoyed making our Valentine bags before the class party. On Tuesday, we had our Valentines party! Thanks to all who helped and made our party a great success! Tues.
