We were ready for Cardinals Opening Day! Here are some of the important things we learned this week...
Our centers this week included finding baseball pictures around the room and writing the sounds we hear, writing the power words in "Take Me Out to the Ball Game", completing CVCe (long vowel and silent e) activities, reading books on RAZKids, and working in our reading groups.
In Phonics, we did a lot of work on CVCe words. We learned when to turn a CVC word into a word with a long vowel and silent e (ex: kit-kite) and practiced reading and writing CVCe words (rose, gate, cube, etc). Please continue working with your child on long vowels at home.
Our new Reading unit has us looking closer at text features and how we use them when reading nonfiction books. We used the table of contents to preview our books, made text to self connections, and used the pictures to help us tell the story. We also worked on asking ourselves "does that make sense?" when reading independently. Our vocabulary words this week included: warn, signal, haul, and mighty.
In Writing, we listened and discussed various opinion writings. We worked on writing opinion pieces using "I think" as our sentence starter. We wrote opinion letters and stories.
We continued working on subtracting numbers within 5 during Math. Please continue subtracting with your child at home.
We checked out the Science Fair project!
Looking ahead...
