I do hope you are enjoying this GORGEOUS weather-WOW!!!!Golfers delight.

A short week next week.  I will combine Weeks 2 & 3 into the following week, since that’s our review week anyway.

READING-Traveling Near and Far is out Theme.

COMPREHENSION STRATEGY-Recognizing Text Structure

COMPREHENSION SKILL-Classify and Categorize

LETTER-I  i

WORD-Go  go

WRITING-making a chart about vehicles that travel On land, On Water, In the Air

MATH-Probability

Please take this weekend opportunity to make sure your child has mastered all of the Sight Words that we have had so far.  They should know how to spell and read the words.  Check my previous blogs for the words.  Also check for LETTERS that we have done.  They should be able to create new words, using the letters that we know.  For example…

With the new letter I i  we can spell and write it  is (because we’ve already had s)

tip  sit  pit  etc.

Make letter/word cards and use those cards to create new words.  Words then become sentences and sentences become stories/paragraphs

Keep a running list of the words on the refrigerator and have your child read the list every time they pass by the list. Add on the new words from your family.  Watch the confidence, Accuracy, and Fluency increase!

Thank you again for sharing your children with me.  They are such precious gifts.  Today they had a sub in GYM class and she told me the students were the BEST class she has ever had!  (Remember how young my kids are too.)

Enjoy your weekend.
