Ms. Gose's first grade class enjoyed celebrating Valentine's Day.
Mrs. Smith's kindergarten had lots of fun celebrating Valentines Day with fun learning activities. One of the favorite activities was using Play Doh to practice sounding out and building CVC words. Using a Pop-It is another fun activity to tap out sounds in words. They were able to take their Play-Doh and Pop-Its home to continue practicing their cycle words.
