What we are learning…
Math: We will practice addition and subtraction and continue our math stations which will review concepts learned throughout the year.
Word Study: Our sight word this week is from. We will continue to work with the L-Blends and R-blends. We will begin the S-blends. Finishing up our magic “e” work, we will sort long and short vowel sound words.
Writing: Students will practice upper and lowercase letter formation, sight words, and completing a 5 star sentence. They will use their writing strategies to complete writing prompts after our read alouds.
Reading: Students will continue to be assessed with their Rainbow Words and nonsense words. We will stop switching classrooms for our guided reading groups. The class will be divided into 4 reading groups that will meet every other day starting Wednesday. They will continue to practice their reading strategies, do word work, and do writing activities with their books.
Science: On Play Doh activity day, students will get to make their own “fossils” and document them like a scientist after learning what fossils are and how we use them. On Rock Day we will examine our rocks and document them like a scientist after learning the characteristics of a rock and how we use rocks, minerals, and soil in the things around us everyday.
Congratulations Logan (AM) and Walker (AM) for completing the kindergarten Rainbow Words!
