Our Reading story for the week is “Goldilocks and the Three Bears”. Our question of the week is: How Can an Adventure Cause Trouble? The Amazing Words for this story are: bears, cottage, porridge, big, middle sized, small. The high frequency words are: one, two, three, four, five. The text based comprehension skill is character. We will listen for /g/ spelled Gg. Please practice reading the “How Many?” decodable story. *Each decodable story can be recorded for the monthly Reading Logs. J

In Math, we will continue working on addition. We will use the vocabulary words: join, sum, and equal. We will learn to use the plus sign and equal sign. Continue to practice counting to 100 by 1’s, 10’s and 5’s.

In Science, we will continue our Physical Science Unit. In this unit, we will continue to learn about our five senses and what objects are made of as well as sorting and using objects.

We will be celebrating Dr. Seuss all week! Students are welcome to bring in any Dr. Seuss storybooks you may have at home. J

February Reading Logs will be collected on Friday, March 1^st. Remember, the goal is to read 15 books per month in order to receive the Pizza Hut coupon.

**Please continue working on naming letters, saying beginning sounds of words, segmenting words into sounds ( say dog-student then says /d/ /o//g/)and reading nonsense words. I will be sending home extra practice pages soon. J
