The new sounds and concepts for this week in Phonics are contractions and words that contain vowels i and e with a consonant and silent e. For example: pike and concrete. Review the pages that come home in the take-home folder. The new sight words are sure, don’t and won’t. Remember to complete the front of the Phonics page that is in the take-home folder. NEW: Please sign the phonics page after your child has read these words to you.
Even though a Decodable Reader is not homework this week, please read something each night with your child. If possible, find a book or story on his/her level and let them read to you. Ask these questions: What/Who are the main character/s? What is the setting? Is the story real or fantasy/make-believe? What is the story all about (main idea)?
The story we are working on this week is called “Get the Egg”. Your child will bring home the book on Thursday. Read “Get the Egg”. By this time, your child has had many chances to practice this, so he/she should be reading with very few errors, fluently and with expression.
No new Spelling List this week!
Topic 4 is winding down. As always, review the pages that come home. We will finish the lessons this week, review and assess next week.
>>Book Orders are due Wednesday, November 20.
I hope you have a dazzling week!
*Monday will be Day 1- Music Class.*
