Aug 28-Sept 1, 2017 Week 4

We had another great week of learning!  I already see progress in students.  We are rocking and rolling in class.  We have the ipads twice a week and we will be taking AR tests during these times.  I sent home your child's AR username and password last Friday in blue folders.  Please keep that information for when you take AR tests at home.  Any questions please contact me.  We went to the ArboREADum last Wednesday.  Although I was TPRI testing during this time, I know that the students had a great time reading in the boat and cave, exploring the listening center and using the mini ipads. 

We started our nurture groups and discussing how we feel and why.  We will discuss this twice a week.  We made engine plates.  Ask your child to tell you about it.

We will read "The Big Blue Ox", the genre is animal fantasy and it's about a make-believe animal family that act like people.  Our reading skills are to blend and read short o words,  plural -s;  identify the character and setting in a story; and recognize predicates (action part);  We will practice blending, reading and coding words in Saxon Phonics. 

In Math we will work on foundations of numbers to 20.  

In Science we will Investigate Properties and Patterns.
We will identify the size, weight, texture and color of objects.

In Social Studies we will continue Community Rules.
