This week in Reading, we read the story “Animal Babies in Grasslands” and discussed what special animals live in the grasslands. We got to watch live videos of elephants and lions in their zoo habitats. Our letter of the week was Pp as in pig! We practiced blending (putting sounds together), segmenting (breaking words into their individual sounds), and initial and final sounds. We also talked about the main idea of a story.  In Math, we began our topic on reading, writing & counting numbers 1-5 and in Science, we discussed what we can see in the daytime and nighttime skies!
