In Mrs. Johnson's class, we had some free writing time.  We also had some silent reading time.  The dry erase boards came out to practice nonsense words.  Nonsense words are not real words, but they help us learn phonics.  We also started our first Studies Weekly.


In math, today, we worked on making tens and making the next ten.  We used the make ten strategy to solve math fact problems like 9 + 8 being rewritten as 10 + 7.  We'll have our first test next Friday!
