Week of September 4th-7th

Our Reading story for the week was “The Little School Bus”. Our question of the week is: How do children get to school? The Amazing Words for this story are: first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth. The high frequency words are: I, am. The text based comprehension skill we worked on was character. Rhyming was the phonological awareness skill. We worked on identifying the letters Aa-Ee. Please practice reading the “I Am” decodable story that was sent home earlier this week.

We started our new Guided Math Lessons this week. A Home School Connection letter was sent home earlier in the week. We will be spending quite a bit of time learning procedures and understanding terminology as well as what to do during guided math lessons. This week we learned our signals, what to do with timers, and how to work appropriately in math stations. We will continue working on learning how to read, write, and count numbers up to five. Please work on one to one correspondence with your child. This is counting an object and saying “one”, then moving to the next object and saying “two”. We have been practicing orally counting to 20 and focusing in on saying the “teen” number correctly. (Thirteen, fourteen, fifteen.)

In Social Studies we continue to learn about and review our SPARTY rules. We are working on being a good citizen and following rules. Everyone has done a great job so far! J

Be sure to take out, cut apart and practice recognizing the sight words that were placed in the first plastic sleeve of the daily folder. We will be working on words in school as well. I will begin checking sight word lists in the next few weeks.

Tomorrow, Friday, September 7th will be a free dress down day for all students. Student may dress down in jeans/sweats or gym shorts with a Spartan or plain t-shirt. Please let me know if you have questions. Weather permitting, we will be going to Spartan Stadium for the re-scheduled Pep Rally.

Monday will be Day 10-Computers, Tuesday will be Day 1-Art, Wednesday will be Day 2-Guidance, Thursday will be Day 3-Gym, and Friday will be Day 4 Music.
