HERE’S A QUICK LOOK AT OUR WEEK:
RELIGION: We will be taking our chapter 2 quiz on Friday. We will be working on the meaning of union, crucifix, and disciple.
Reading: We continue working on our reading strategies. We have learned the following reading skills the last few weeks. Your child should be able to explain or model what each skill means.
- Decide HOW to read
- Give the book a sneak peek (new book)
- Read More and More
- Read in Bigger Scoops
- STOP, THINK, RETELL
We are working on not dropping beginning or endings while reading such as undo or starving.
Writing/Grammar: Capitalization especially when beginning a sentence, punctuation, identifying complete sentences, and identifying nouns. We will begin learning about verbs (action words).
MATH: We started working on identifying operations in word problems. We have learned how to skip count on a calculator. We have been working on building fluency on our addition facts. We got started on Chapter 2 last week. Practice the doubles (2+2, 8+8)
Science: Positional words (under, over, next to)
Social Studies: Maps
We will have our first Primary Center next Friday. Please send me an email if you are interested in volunteering. Also, I am in need of pillow washers. Please let me know if you are available this weekend to wash our pillows.
Blessings,
Mrs. Vazquez
