February 22-26


Wow, time is really flying by lately!  I can't believe that February is almost over.  Here is what we will be working on this week in English class:
  • phonics: assessment - decoding skill #2 (2 consonants will split), conjunctions, -le at the end of words, double consonants
  • phonics: adding suffixes to words ending in -y
  • phonics: decoding 2-syllable words
  • phonics: synonyms and antonyms
  • writing: I decided that the kids needed more practice before the assessment so we are currently working on our third practice round of personal narrative.  We will probably finish on Tuesday, and begin the assessment on Wednesday.
  • reading: begin Theodore Roosevelt: The Adventurous President (objectives - to use text features to locate important information, to read and comprehend informational text, to recount key ideas, to ask and answer questions)
The Who Stole Mr. Bear Mystery Night has been moved to March 3rd.  It sounds like it will be great fun.  I hope you can make it!
