Week of September 23-27, 2019

Weekly Newsletter for September 23-27, 2019

          In Reading, we will continue with our story, “Pig in a Wig.”  We have discussed who helps animals and what we could do to help animals!  Our class has also discussed the plot of the story!  The high frequency words for this story are: she, take, what and up.  Our test for this story will be tomorrow, Tuesday, September  24^th.

Our focus phonics skills for this story are short I and consonant -x.  Our spelling words are: six, lip, in, wig, it, did, mix, sit, pin, and fix.  Our challenge words are “she” and “take.”  Our spelling test will also be tomorrow, Tuesday, September 24^th. 

In Math, we will continue to discuss number lines!  We will also begin to talk about different ways to represent a number.  For example: using tally marks, ten frames, base-ten blocks, word form, drawing a picture, and a number sentence!

As a class, we love to read and listen to stories!  It is very important that kids hear fluent reading and apply comprehension strategies.  One way we can practice these skills is by having guest readers come into our classroom!  If any parent/ grandparent/ guardian would like to come into our classroom as a guest reader, please let me know by writing me a note, email or Class Dojo message!
