Math:
We will finish up Unit 2 with Lesson 13 this week. Understanding and finding patterns in numbers is a challenging but fun lesson for the kids.
Reading:
In Unit 3 Week 1, our comprehension skill is determining character, setting and plot. This week we are reading the folktales The Inchworm’s Tale and Martina the Beautiful Cockroach. We are going to be practicing our use of visualization as well as identifying synonyms.
Phonics:
r-controlled vowels and contractions
Vocabulary:
-unique -disbelief -fabulous -features -offered -splendid -watchful -dismay
In class, we learn about these vocabulary words in connection to ourselves. If you notice your child using any of these words in context, this would be a great opportunity to celebrate their efforts!
NOVEMBER POEMS
Each month students are required to memorize at least one poem. Below are the month’s poems. We only read through these in class once, so they need to be practiced at home. Students can pass off poems on Fridays whenever they are ready to recite them.
OPTIONAL – yet HIGHLY encouraged by Ms. Beckstead – REVIEW
- Read at least 20 minutes per day. Making sure that your child does his/her reading daily is the single most helpful thing you can do to support educational success.
- REFLEX- at least 3 green lights per week!
- There is a link to Reflex on the right hand side of the blog. The username is: Beck3 and students will use their own network password to log in.
