All about -at words and 3D Shapes...and Cody Belew!!!

Today, we learned the -at word family-hat, bat, sat, rat, etc. Word families consist of a vowel and final consonant(s) that produce a pattern of sounds that rhyme. Word families provide students with an opportunity to analyze the patterns of sounds within words. Recognizing word families can assist students with decoding words more fluently.




Salihah did a fantastic job matching the word to the picture on the smart board.




Mia did a great job matching the word to the picture during the daily 5.




Ananya did a fabulous job cutting and matching the -at words during independent work time.




Way to go Matthew! He did a great job on his writing and stamping task during the daily 5.




We learned all about 3D Shapes today-cube, cone, cylinder, and sphere. This sheet is in their skills binder for daily review.




We learned a fun 3D Shapes song on YouTube!




We explored and discussed their attributes by passing them around the room. We discussed if the shapes can slide, stack, and roll.












We made a graphic organizer to add characteristics and real life examples during our study this week. Kayden did a great job sorting!




Caleb and Amogh worked very hard on the blends chart during guided reading.




Teaching reading is my absolute favorite thing about K!! We worked hard on story retelling and making connections.
