What we will be working on this week:

  • Please review the following high frequency words with your child at home: I, am, the, little, a, to, have, is, like, we, my, he, for, with, she, me, see, look, they, you, of, are, that do. We will also be learning the number words: one, two, three, four, five.
  • 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 blends containing the letter L. For example: bl, cl, fl, gl, pl,sl.
  • In math we will be finishing up 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.
