Reading – This week we will be focusing our
attention on reading long vowel words (CVe) and we are still establishing
reading groups. During this time, we are practicing how to work on our “Story
Elements Portfolio”. Also, your child will be bringing home high-frequency word
flashcards. Please practice these words. Test will be on Friday.
In addition, I like to give differentiated homework to the
students based on their reading ability. This week your child will either have
a decodable reader for homework or a reading packet. Please check your child’s
folder each evening. Either way, please have your child read the book or
assigned pages in the packet three times and please sign on the stamped area
stating that homework was completed.
Writing – Last week our class wrote friendly letters
to our computer teacher, Mr. Glessner. The children were so surprised when he
wrote back to them!! We will continue to work on writing these letters. If you
get a chance, take a quick trip to the local post office and show your child around.
We have been talking a lot about how our mail system works.
Math - We will review and practice using
small groups in our classroom. We will discuss our routine and expectations on
how groups should run smoothly and properly within our classroom. During this
time, we will also focus our attention on addition. Please practice the
addition flashcards each evening with your child. We will have an addition quiz
on Friday. Also, the students will have a math worksheet each evening for
homework. It could be an addition sheet or the back of the math mat. Please
check with your child each evening.
Science – Our focus this week is on the sun
and why it is important to life on Earth.
Reminders
Students will be going outside for recess daily (weather permitting). Please be sure that your child is dressed appropriately.
Due
to having a late lunch, our class will be having a snack mid-morning. Please
send a snack into school with your child each day.
