What Are We Learning This Week:
Sight Words: AS, NO, KNOW, ABOUT, BY.
Letter Team: KN (the K is silent, like in KNOW and KNIGHT), and EW (like in NEW and STEW).
Reading: We will continue our leveled reading groups this week. In these groups, students will be working on various reading strategies as we read A-Z leveled books. These books will be coming home in our book bags every day. We will also be reading a fun fluency page - this week, this is a short story titled Thanksgiving. We will practice reading this all week to work on fluency and find text evidence to answer text related questions in the story. In class, we will also read many books turkeys and pilgrims and Indians, as we prepare for Thanksgiving.
Writing: We will continue to work on writing personal narrative stories. We are learning to extend our sentences and add details.
Math: We will work on fun Thanksgiving math games this week. We will also have fun exploring 2D and 3D shapes.
Leadership: For the month of November, our whole school will be focusing on the A of ROAR: Act Safely. We will talk about what that means and how we can act safely in the classroom, while walking, and at recess.
