Spelling
words will be introduced as usual Monday- Wednesday with a review day on
Thursday. I would like to review the
spelling expectations with you. They will write the nightly words two times
each without markings going down the green homework sheet. Please be sure it is
folded and they are writing along the start of the line and the fold. This
allows for neat and organized habits.
Thursday is the only night when all words are written once without
markings. Our weekly phonograms consist of ones that are in need of review as
well as ones found in our spelling words. Letter formations and neatness count!
Reading
That’s
a wrap with Owl at Home. I can’t express enough how enjoyable it was to listen
to the children read. I was continually impressed with their fluent and
expressive reading! Over the next two
weeks we will be combining our literature and social studies subjects as we
travel the world together. Each day we
will travel to a new country using the Nat. Geo website to learn about the
currency, monuments, language, and traditions that take place this time of
year. It is a wonderful time of year and an enjoyable unit!
Math
What
a life skill we have been working on, identifying money and its value. Next
week we will be counting change. This task will take time and patience and will
take support from home. There will be counting coins with change at home added
to the nightly homework.
Science
Social
studies will be heavily incorporated over the next two weeks.
Have
a wonderful weekend,
Ms. Reger
