Speed Sort!!

Today in spelling we focused on SPEED SORTING! The kids love this and it is so easy to practice at home! The kids take their cut up words from yesterday and pull out all of their headers. Then they get a sand timer (Those ones that come in board games) and flip it over. Once the timer has started they try to sort their words as FAST as they can to try and beat the clock! It is fun to watch them when they do this activity. I put a video below of a couple students doing their speed sort. They are so focused when they play this "game". :) 






Also I noticed that there are some spelling choices in their homework that need a "coin chart" The kids have glued in the fronts and backs of their homework notebook the coin charts and scrabble tiles for those certain choices! Below is a picture of the coin chart and scrabble tiles paper! 




Today the kids also took home some SYMMETRY butterflies...This was a really fun art project to do with the kids...(we did it last Friday) Ask them how they mad both sides look the same!! 




Have a great day! Make sure those kiddos bring back their homework notebooks!!!!
