Lots pf activity and excitement going on in here. I finished assessing each student on the letters, words, and numbers from the notice that I sent home last week. I will go over the results when I meet with you at our conference.

Here’s what’s coming up this week…

LETTERS H h I i

WORDS To to go go

Reading Comprehension: Responding to questions about BATS. We’ll learn some things about BATS!

PHONICS Ending Sounds of swords

WRITING We’ll be writing OPINION sentences about SPIDERS AND BATS.

MATH We will begin Module 2, 2D and 3D shapes. Have some discussion this weekend about shapes. Reminder that Math Packets will go home Monday, Oct. 28 and are due the following Monday, November 4.

SCIENCE FORCES Push and Pull

THURSDAY 1:30-2:00 will be our Halloween Parade around the track

FRIDAY Half day for students 11:45 dismissal

PM Teacher Duty Day

Please don’t wait for me to introduce letters, words, math concepts. I post the following topics and teaching points every Friday so that the students can be exposed and work with some of the topics at home before arriving on Mondays. Also, please keep up a DAILY review of all letters, sounds, and words that I do each week. I am building on previous weeks and the lessons. I can always tell those who are reviewing at night, reading their books from their Book Bags, practicing Math concepts (like “1 more than 15” or “What is 1 less than 12?”), making sentences with their reading /writing words. Just 15 minutes every day is such a help to your child and teaches them the value of responsibility to their own learning. Of course, READ TO THEM EVERY NIGHT!!!

Have a good weekend!
