Teacher Comments:  Just to let you know --- another student is out with pink-eye.
niknotes: I'm so happy Community Skills went well.  Mick has renamed the four of us (his immediate family) as characters from the singing vegetable portion of his "Wee Sing Train" video.  Jack doesn't want to be called "Carrot."  Da is "Broccoli,"  and I am "Po-tah-to."  The fourth vegetable is actually a red beet, but Mick has chosen to be called "Apple."  I guess he doesn't really know what a beet is, maybe, and he knows apples look round and red like the beet puppet.  Maybe he just wants to be called "Apple" for some other reason.  It was probably more a result of the Apples unit in class than Gwyneth Paltrow's baby, Apple, but I thought the coincidence was funny.  He really does insist, though:  "My name is Apple Dullaghan.  Hi, Po-tah-to, say, 'Hi, sweet, little Apple.' "
 
Speech News

Identifying/expressing vocabulary:  a. pronouns, b. adjectives (large/small), c. home/school words, d. action words, e. prepositions
Answering wh- questions (when) and yes-no questions
