September 21-25
I have had several comments on homework packets about Reflex Math. Yes, it is homework. Click here for directions on how to access Reflex Math. If your child doesn't have access to a computer at home, they can use playing cards to play a math game instead. If they don't have playing cards, they need to ask me for some (I have plenty to share!). Click here for some fun math games that you can play with playing cards.
Here is what we are working on this week in English class:
- vision screening: Wednesday @ 1:20
- phonics: S-Blends (sc, sk, sl, sm, sn, sp, st, sw)
- phonics: commas (between day and year, after the year in a sentence, between date and month, to separate items in a series, after greeting and closings in a letter)
- phonics: /dw/ and /tw/
- phonics: assessment - chapters 18-22
- phonics: double S, F, and Z (in single-syllable words that end in the letter s, f, or z, the ending consonant is usually doubled)
- writing: continue working on an imaginative narrative (fictional story) - create a flow map with an opening sentence, three events with details, and transition words
- reading: begin Snowshoe Hare's Winter Home (objective 1 - use information from illustrations and words in a text to demonstrate an understanding of its characters, objective 2 - demonstrate understanding of key details in a text)
