This week we start a new unit in Reading-MAKING FRIENDS is our theme.

READING-Our unit title is LEARNING ABOUT FRIENDS.

We’ll talk about how friends can be friends and yet still like or do different things.

WRITING-We’ll be writing sentences!  A sentence

-has a complete thought,

-starts with a capital letter

-has spaces between the words

-punctuation at the end  (. ? ! )

WORD- like

LETTER-S  s

• As you go out for a ride, walk, or around the house, find some things that start with s.
• Practice writing our words in different colors of crayons and markers.
• Write the words on 3×5 cards and play a Memory Game.  (Write 2 sets of the words in crayons instead of markers.  Markers leak through and you can see the word from the back side.)
• Using the 3×5 cards, make a sentence.
• Can you switch around the words and make a question?

Words are I   am   Am   Can  can  We  we  The  the  like  A   a  

MATH and SCIENCE-We’ll be exploring Attributes.  Size, Shape, Color, Thickness
