- Please have your child practice reading and writing the high frequency words that we’ve learned so far.
- This week we will be concentrating on identifying and writing the letter Hh. We will discuss the sound of the letter as well as words that contain this letter sound.
- In math we will continue our measurement unit. We are comparing objects to measure their length, height, and weight. We compare objects while using vocabulary such as: longer, shorter, taller, heavier, lighter.
- In writing we are working on coming up with a topic for a sentence and then counting out how many words are in our sentence. Students are then producing “kidwriting” (writing the sounds that they hear in the words) to write each word of their sentence on the lines. Students are being encouraged to stretch out the words in order to hear as many sounds as possible within each word. Students are now being required to write two sentences that relate to each other.
