Unfortunately, we have had a few sick kids already this week. Be on the watch for upset stomachs and a fever.
This week we will continue to learn new centers and work on center rotations. The kids will learn how to do spelling search, picture search, stamps, pocket chart, and roll-a-word. It is nice to get the kids trained on the centers and rotations now, so when we start reading groups they know what to do and I do not have to stop teaching reading groups to help them.
During our whole group reading time will learn our final two reading strategies, Flippy Dolphin (flip the vowel sound) and Chunky Monkey (look for chunks in words). We will also be working on answering questions using text evidence. Our poem for the week is "The Getting Along Song" and we will work on the high-frequency word like.
In writer's workshop we will be working on stretching out words, using our alphabet chart, writing words we know, and word patterns. I am blown away at how well the kids are doing with their writing.
In math, we will continue to work on chapter one, addition concepts. This week we will be working with bar models, adding zero, and adding in any order.
Did you remember to sign and send back your child's poetry binder?
Wishing you well
