Small Group LA Activities

We were busy at small groups this week. I thought you might like to see what we do for language arts during small group time.

Monday:
We learned what a contraction is. The kids sorted the words into two groups, contraction and not a contraction.

Tuesday:
We practiced writing. Our prompt was "If I was a Leprechaun I would..." Some kids sounded out their own words and some kids traced the words I wrote for them.

Wednesday:
We practiced categorizing words. Each flower petal had a word on it and the kids had to put the words in the proper category (colors, numbers, places, or animals).

Thursday: 
We practiced our sight words. The kids wrote a sight word on five gold coins. Then the kids read the words they wrote.

Friday:
Cooking: We followed directions and made a tasty treat. Cooking day is one of the most anticipated days of our week. On Monday, the kids start asking me how many more days until cooking day.
