Reading: We will be reading short passages and practicing answering questions using multiple choice options. We will practice locating answers in the text. We will also have statements with specific instructions. With both activities, we will be practicing comprehension skills with restating the questions in a sentence form.

Phonics: l-blends- we will practice words that begin with cl-, bl-, fl-, gl-, pl-, sl-. (examples: clip, black, flop, glue, plug, slip)

Sight words: where, here

Word family:-un (sun, fun, bun, run,

Spelling words: sun, fun, bun, run, here, where

Writing: We will be writing a narrative about a special play date. Strategies to focus on include:

• capitalize the beginning letter in the sentence
• put a end mark/punctuation mark at the end of a thought.
• use transition words: first, then, after that, finally/in the end
• use dialogue: your characters need to say something- Mom said…., I said…..

Math: We will be comparing sets of objects. We will discuss making a group to match and having one more, one less and equal to the amount. We will also have a math test this week. This that will be covered will be:

• counting by 1’s, 5’s, 10’s to 100
• counting on from any number 0-100
• counting a group of objects and writing the amount down
• comparing number using the symbols: ><=
• adding and subtracting within 10

Social Studies: We will revisit mapping skills this week. We will work on neighborhood maps in groups. We will explore the compass rose  (north, south, east, west)
