Looking forward to a great week! Here is our focus:
Reading: This first week we will be individually testing your child for their DRA level in Reading. No Reading story or test this week.
Skills: Phonics and Fluency
Strategies: identifying letter sounds and matching letters to sounds
Accelerated Reader (AR): Fifteen minutes reading in class; and fifteen minutes of reading AR book at home each night.
Book in Bag: These leveled books are to be read each night.
Math: We will be using a programed titled: Singapore Math. This week we are focusing on writing, reading, and adding numbers to ten. We will be doing mental math each day in class. It' s a very fun program the kiddos love! More info to come on Back to School Night!
Writing: We are using a school-wide program titled: Being a Writer. it is a wonderful program that incorporates all the necessary skills while teaching them to work as a writing community, partners, share their writing, and be encouraging peer tutors for each other's pieces.
