During Reading, we visualized the poem "It Fell in the City". We discussed which words helped us make pictures in our minds. We also used the illustrations in the story Red Sled to discuss what was happening in the book. We echo read with attention to characters' feelings to build oral fluency and discussed the typography to build our concepts of print. We practiced visualizing while reading independently. Finally, we learned these vocabulary words: grasp, observe, evening, and noiseless.
In Phonics, we revisited the sounds and letters: Bb, Ii, Ff, and Cc. We learned two new power words: my and by. We read a story titled Can it Fit? and wrote about the story. We continued working on word families, medial sounds, blending, and segmenting.
In Writing, we heard and discussed good writing. We wrote about our feelings and told our ideas orally before writing. We worked on writing from left to write and leaving spaces between our words. We also used our word wall to help us. We were introduced to three new power words: feel and when.
In this week’s Second Steps lesson, we learned that kindness is a way to show people that they care and that doing kind acts can make both the giver and the receiver feel good. We shared personal examples and discussed how we felt when they gave or received kind acts. Help your child think of a kind act they can do for someone and support them in carrying it out. With your child, discuss how they think the receiver of the kind act felt. Ask your child how they felt doing a kind act for someone.
Looking ahead...
