This week we will be studying the sounds of a, z and s. Also some new concepts: suffix s, sight word-the, and our first Decodable Reader! Please review these when the pages come home in the Take-Home Folders. The Decodable Reader will stay in school for a few days but when it comes home please have your child read it to you. Lesson 10 in our Phonics series is an assessment. This will help me see what your children have retained up to this point. If there are deficits, we will work on these in small groups as needed. As always read any book/story that interests your child.
In Math we will be wrapping up our lessons on addition. Please review the pages and practice adding numbers to 9. On Friday we will have our first review of everything we have learned so far. This brings us to an assessment next week on addition, more information on next week’s This Week’s Happenings.
We are continuing to review the reading strategies that will help your child with comprehension. Please keep working on… Check for Understanding, Back Up and Reread, also Cross-Checking(do the pictures and words look right, sound right and make sense?) this strategy will help with accuracy and our newest-Tune Into Interesting Words.
I hope you have a super week!
