Noun & Verbs

The children took a quiz on nouns and one on verbs last week.  Take a look at these quizzes and celebrate their successes.  Then make sure you continue to point out nouns and verbs in your child’s environment.

Inflected Endings ~ ing, ed

We have learned that by adding ing & ed to the end of a verb we can show when it is happening.  Then we went outside and acted out the 3 words: jump, jumping & jumped.                                           

  We want to jump!  

We are jumping!

We jumped!

We are the “King of ing”.  When we add ing to the end of a verb we are showing that it is happening right then.  

We know how to write sentences!  A complete sentence begins with a capital, has spacing between each word, contains a noun and a verb, and ends with punctuation.  Just ask us or come see our Sentence Buddies hanging up in front of our classroom.

We finished our rock unit in science and decided to turn our rocks 

into ROCK BUDDYS.  It was such a fun activity!  

Thank you to Brie Allred and Samantha Hargrave for helping. 

Then we named them and wrote descriptions about them.  I can’t wait for you to see what they wrote!  It will be in their Writing Portfolio that will come home at the end of the year.

  

OPA GARDEN 

We had a really fun opportunity to work in our school garden on Friday with Mrs. Cash!  We helped spread bark.  We got to see the garlic that we helped plant last fall.  She taught us about plants that are already growing in the garden like cilantro, parsley, and sage.  Some of us tasted the sage.  We also got to plant flower seeds!    Thank you Mrs. Cash!
