Reading:
We love poetry!
Every week I make sure the kids can appreciate rhythm in a poem. We are still learning, but having SO much fun with it. I also let the students be the leaders by the end of the week, while I assist. They think it's the coolest thing, ever to get to lead the lessons. We practiced short /e/ sounds this week, and reviewed 6 high frequency words.
Math:
We FINALLY finished Chapter 3! Wahoo! Now we are on to Chapter 4, where we will learn all about subtraction strategies. (New homework packet being sent home, today!)
Writing:
We practiced Small Moments more, and zoomed in on the most special part of our stories, to add more details or "sprinkles" of information.
Science/Social Studies:
We have been celebrating Hispanic Heritage all month long, so this week we learned all about CUBA. We learned about the island, folklore, and even different cultural traditions such as "salsa" dancing. Your child can do the basic step, ask them to show you!
Extra, Extra, Read All About It!-If you ever have ANY questions or concerns, and would ever like a phone or face to face conference, please let me know...I really value communication and making sure all of my parents are well informed
