F-No homework!

Please sign and return your child’s report card if you have not done so.  Thanks!  Also, please be sure you are having your child read his/her leveled reader daily and sign his/her reading log.  This week, we will be working on the CVCe (consonant-long vowel-consonant-silent –e) spelling pattern with long –a.  Our spelling words will reflect this pattern.  We will also work on words with the final endings: nd, ng, and nk.  In math, we will work on place value (tens & ones), relations (greater than-less than), and exploring area, weight, and counting.  Thanks so much for your help in making this school year a successful one!  Have a great week!

I hope you are all enjoying our fall weather.  We have finally had some cool days!  Please make sure that your child completes his/her homework each day.  Homework is practice for what we are learning during instructional time at school.  Also, if you would look at your child’s work on Mondays and have him/her correct any mistakes that they made; that will be helpful when he/she is assessed.  We will concentrate on silent letters (gn, wr, and kn) in Language Arts.  We will review the short sound of –e.  Some students are confusing the short –i and short –e sounds.  Please help us stress the difference between the two. In math, we will introduce the inch as a standard unit of length, practice measuring to the nearest inch, and estimate and measure the lengths of objects in inches.  Thanks so much.   Have a great week!

During reading block this week, we will be working on words with short –o (on, got, etc.) and –l clusters (clean, blue, etc.).  Please be sure to have your child pack his/her guided reading bags each day.  We do not want to lose these precious books.  Your child should be reading the assigned story each day as well as his/her leveled reader story.  You may record both on the reading log in the bag with the leveled reader.  We will soon be completing our AIMS screening for the second Benchmark period.  When this period begins, I will send home leveled readers, but will not be able to meet with each group every day.  I will keep you posted on this.  In math, we will be working with domino addition, math messages, reading a thermometer, and nonstandard linear measurements.  Have a great week!
