Wonders Unit 2

We are now beginning Unit 2 in Language Arts. Below are the power words, oral vocabulary words, letters, and sounds we will be mastering during the next 3 weeks. We will continue working on syllables, rhyming, identifying the beginning and ending sounds of words, and writing our names. In math we are writing our numbers 0-10, learning to add one more, and comparing greater than and less than with numbers and objects. And in science, we are completing our weather unit and will soon begin our unit on forces.

What we are learning:

We are excited to begin Unit 1 in Language Arts. Below are the high frequency words, oral vocabulary words, and letters we will be mastering in the next 3 weeks. In addition, we are working on syllables, identifying the beginning and ending sounds of words, rhyming, and writing our name.

In math, we are have started our individual math lessons on iReady. We are working to master counting to 20 and reading and writing our numbers 0-10. In addition, we are identifying which number comes next when we hear any number 1-99. You can help us at home by saying a random number 1-99 and asking us which number comes next.

In science we are exploring weather patterns and how to prepare for different weather events. We can show that we are understanding by coming to school prepared for the daily weather. For example, this week we can remember to bring our labeled water bottle so we stay hydrated during this heat wave.
