This Weekend’s Homework:

1. Folder-shape sort, cut, paste, and sort the shapes… the CHILDREN need to cut out the shapes and practice their cutting, it is THEIR homework not parents 🙂
2. Reading Bag- NEW DIGRAPH chart– they should practice this daily just like sight words, and books! To practice the digraphs, they should go c-h (ch sound) chick, w-h (wh sound), t-h (th sound) three, s-h (sh sound) sheep, and last p-h (f sound) photograph as we practice during read to self time today.
3. Math Bag- play math games– making 10 with red and yellow counters, card game “war” for comparing numbers (which is greater?), and dice game- roll, write, and draw the dots to show the quantity on the dice— NEW practice reading their shapes book and naming 2D and 3D shapes they see at home and out and about, for example at the store or park!
4. POEM BOOK- please read ALL poems with your child and return book on Monday so we can add more poems- thank you.

Reminders:

1. Please send in a January snack for the class to share.  We have 18 students in the class.  We only have a few crackers and will not be able to continue morning and afternoon snack if parents do not send in items.
2. Mark your calendars for NEXT FRIDAY (January 15th) there will be a Parent Technology Workshop at 2pm in the computer lab.

Have a nice weekend!

Thank you,
