If you haven’t sent a baby picture to your child’s teacher, please send one ASAP so your child can participate in Baby Picture Day on May 1st. Thank you!
This week in literacy, we will…
Distinguish and know the sound-spellings for long i and long o (ie and oe)
Read irregularly spelled words (number, today, special, over).
Build fluency while reading a book titled, Moe's Diner. While reading we will infer the characters' feelings and retell important information from the story.
Identify the elements of a sentence. We will review the use of quotation marks, commas, and capitalization of proper nouns.
Read a poem titled, It's Raining. We will review inflectional endings (-ed and -ing) and contractions while reading this poem.
Read a book titled, The Strawberry Hunt, by Joan Silver. We will talk about illustrations and print features to evaluate how they help understand information. We ill also discuss the story's setting, and why it's important.
Participate in Heggerty Phonemic Awareness Lessons.
This week in writing, we will…
Continue our From Scenes to Series writing unit
Include sparkly words in our fiction stories
Use spelling strategies to spell tricky words (say the sounds slowly, use snap words, listen for little words inside the big word, use words we know to help us)
