Here’s a quick overview of new things we learned this week:
Comprehension strategy: “Visualize” . We read a fictional story, a fable and an informational text to go along with our theme “What are the different sounds we hear?”
New High Frequency Word: “and”
Phonics:blend and isolate sounds in CVC words. New sound/spelling: Nn
Vocabulary: listen, volume, exclaimed, chat, familiar
Math: Lesson 16 “Count, Read, and Write Numbers 11-20”
Science: In our Read-Along lesson about forces this week, a little girl watched a house being built and wondered why the builders need so many big machines. Students acted out the “work words” of their favorite machine.
