Oct 4th

Hello!

Reading/Comprehension: We have been working on finding evidence to prove our guesses on what the setting is in our books. We can find evidence in words or pictures. It would be helpful for students if you ask questions about the story's setting at home and then have them find evidence in words or pictures about where the story takes place!

  • Don't forget to do your reading logs! They are due every Friday with your student's name on it!!!

Phonics: We will be working on our next digraph (two letters that make one sound). Th makes two sounds, voiced and unvoiced. Unvoiced TH is used in the word thumb. Your voice box is not being used in the TH part of the word thumb. The voiced TH is used in the word there. If you hold your hand to your throat on /th/  you will feel your voice box vibrating.

Math: We are cruising into next week. We have been looking a numerous fact families. We are discovering what makes a fact family while exploring different was to use addition.

  • Homework today! Due back on Monday. (Pages 23 and 24)
  • Homework is coming home Tuesday and will be due Wednesday (pages 25 and 26)
  • Homework is coming home next Friday and will be due the following Monday (pages 27 and 28).
  • If your student is struggling to complete the challenge part of the homework you may skip it! I do not want to cause meltdowns!
Science: We have been observing different objects and discussing their purpose. We have also been wondering about their designs. How and why was it made. We will be working on this engineering unit for a few weeks. This has been a fun and insightful unit so far!
