Weekly
Newsletter for October 2-6, 2017
This week, our
students are working on the S.P.AR.T.Y rule of Teamwork! We will
continue to discuss and show ways we can be a good team member of our classroom
and school. This rule really connects
with our 100’s chart for teamwork. Our
students have been working so hard to collect those 100’s chart points and are
SO close to winning a celebration!
Our spelling
words for the story are: six, lip, in, wig, it, did, mix, sit, pin and
fix. Our challenge words are: “she” and
“take.” Our focus phonics skill for this
story is the short I sound. Our spelling
test for this story will be on Thursday,
October 5th.
In Reading, we
are continuing to discuss the literary elements of characters and setting. We are discussing as a class who helps
animals and how we can help them! Our
test for our story, Pig in a Wig will be on Thursday, October 5th. Again, we will take this test together, and
discuss good test-taking strategies.
A new
Accelerated Reader (AR) paper will be sent home for the month of October this
week! Students are building a strong
reading foundation by practicing reading books on their level! Kiddos that complete the October AR paper
this month will receive a Pizza Hut book-it coupon!
