2. I enjoyed meeting with all of you
last week. Thank you for making
time to come talk to me about your
child.
What are we learning this week?
Math: We are learning about
measurement.
Reading/Writing: Sight words will
continue. Please practice them
each night. If your child forgets to
bring it home, all the lists are on my
website. We are also learning new
strategies to improve reading skills.
Students should bring home their
guided reading baggie and sight
word baggie each night for practice
and they need to bring them back to
school each day. We will continue
to review consonants and vowels
and work on making consonant,
vowel, consonant words (bed, car,
fox). We will begin Magic E words
(bike, gate, care)
IB/Social Studies/Science: We will
begin our new unit on
classifying/sorting, wants vs. needs,
and goods and services.
3. Exciting News! There will be 2
reading contests from Wednesday,
Oct. 14th – Nov. 6th sponsored by
the library. There will be a grade
level contest with the winning
grade level earning a party. There
also will be a student contest. A
reading log will be sent home and
students are required to read at
home for 20 minutes, 5 nights a
week. Parents must sign the
reading log. Make sure you sign
both the homework sheet for
minutes read AND the contest log.
