Happy Friday Families! Can you believe we're only a week away from spring break!?
The weather has been so nice! We have been doing much of our afternoon class work outside and it has been delightful!
Here's a look at next week.
Spalding: We
will learn our last three phonograms ti (cue: tall), si, ci (cue:short). We now
know 70 phonograms! Please be sure that you are also going back to the alphabet
and reviewing the first 26 phonograms, especially all of the vowel sounds. Our
words this week will be: your, out, time, may, into, him, today, look, did,
like.
Sight
Words: This week will we will introduce list 9; find, now, oil, who, call, been, water, first, than,
my. Look for it to be added to your child’s sight word
lists next week.
Literature: This
week’s story will be Mike Mulligan. Students may bring in their
copy of Mike Mulligan on Monday. Please hold off on reading the story
ahead of time, we would like to enjoy the story for the first time as a class
family. We will explore the importance of hard work and discuss the virtues
Mike Mulligan and Mary Anne display. Our poem will be I’m a Little
Teapot.
Math:This week we will continue our unit on subtraction. We will focus
on teaching your scholar how subtraction is a whole minus a part. This will be
demonstrated through number bonds, and various tangible examples. In the
afternoon we will continue working on subtraction through fun games such as
“Who Stole the Cookie from the Cookie Jar”!
Science: This week we will be learning all
about frogs! We will begin the week by focusing on the lifecycle of a frog and
how it grows from egg to tadpole, and tadpole to frog. We will talk about the
parts of a frog as well as what an amphibian is. Students will create a mini
booklet to share about the lifecycle and they will make their very own frog
mask with a fun tongue!
