repetition and showing pictures of words that begin with the
letters B. The students also used their far point copying skills
to copy the B words written on the board.
To allow the students practice following multi-step directions,
they colored pictures of words that begin with letter B. Then;
they cut it and organized it alphabetically to glue it on their
dictionary notebooks.
A group of students wrote sentences about themselves. With
help, they used their own phonetic transcription to sound out
the words and write them in appropriate cases with the
needed spacing between words.
Using dominos, they composed numbers 1-5 and wrote addition
equations( e.g. 1+2=3)
We collected the class data to make bar graphs ( numbers of
boy vs. number of girls in class, number of students buying
lunch vs. number of students packing lunch)
