Week of May 14th-18th

This week in Reading we will begin the story Building Beavers. The question we will focus on is: How do beavers build their homes? This story is an informational text and we will be focusing on the text based comprehension skill of main idea. Our phonics skill is /e/ spelled Ee. Our high frequency words are: the, like, was, from, to.

This week in Math we will begin with Topic 12, Measurement. We will learn to describe objects by more than one attribute, compare by length, weight, and height as well as compare capacities. Please continue practicing counting to 100 by ones, fives, and tens as well as writing numbers 0 to 20.

We will be taking Reading DIBELS on Wednesday. Please make sure your child practices reading nonsense words from the sheet that was sent home last week. Be sure to work on quickly naming letters and segmenting words into their sounds as well. We have been working on these skills for quite some time and I would like to see all students do the best they can. J

Our daily special schedule for the week is: Monday, Day 8-Gym; Tuesday, Day 9-Music; Wednesday, Day 10-Computer; Thursday, Day 1-Art; and Friday, Day 2-Guidance.

Some dates to look ahead: 5/16-Reading DIBELS test, 5/22-Kindergarten Graduation at 1pm, 5/28- off for Memorial Day.
