Inquiry into Language 
This week, the students will be focusing on the letter P. Today we went over past songs of the week, and the students listened to this weeks song. Later we created a web with words that begin with the letter P. Once we went over those words, we played a game! Each student had to say a word that began with P, if they repeated a word, or said a word that did not begin with P, they were out. The winners received house points!
