Week 7 Q3

 



What we learn this week!

Notes:

Spalding: We introduced the phonograms SI, TI, CI. Students used their pink notebook to write their new spelling words/sight words (today, look, did, like). Students started their cumulative test this week. We are not finished. We will continue testing next week. Please review and practice all phonograms learned since the beginning of the year, single, double, and three letter phonograms.

Reading reminders:

  • Your child should read to an adult as daily homework.
  • Practice sight words as daily homework. Assessments on Wednesdays.
  • Minimal goal by the end of third quarter, master 75 sight words. (5 sight words a week), but the sky is the limit!

Literature: Our poem this week is “Sing a Song of Sixpence”. On Monday, we read the story “The Bremen Town Musicians”. The students enjoyed the story! We also started our study of fables. The first fable we studied was “The Ants and The Grasshopper.” Students are creating a booklet with all the fables we will read.

Math: Students tested on their Math cumulative test for two days. At the end of the week, we started our Addition unit. Our first lesson was “Add two numbers together.

Science: Students learned how to take care of Earth. In class, we sorted things we can do to help our planet. Also, we created a mobile, and talked about acid rain. We placed some pennies in vinegar for an acid rain experiment and discussed the results in class.

History/Geography: During history class, we wrapped the unit by reviewing about the Pilgrims life. We compare their life to our modern life. We assessed and review all that we have learned from Pilgrims to Colonial times.

  Notes:  Your child should bring a daily snack to school placed in the front or side pocket of the backpack. On Wednesdays, students can bring two snacks since it is half day and they will have their lunch later for that day. Remember, no juices/liquids, or food that will need utensils like forks or spoons. If you want your child to tell you more about school, this are some ideas on how to ask them about their days: o    “Tell me two things you learned today.”   o    “What was the best part of your day?”   o    “What was challenging today for you?”   o    “Tell me about what you did at recess today.”   What we learn this week! Spalding: This week, students were introduced to Spalding. We explained that spoken words are made of individual sounds called phonograms, and we will learn how to hear and write those sounds. Students learned how to sit down with head high, back straight, hips back, slant the paper, and the p...

  Dear families, These kindergartens are finally mastering all the routines and procedures. They can spend the entire day at school without being tired. They are working hard on all subjects! At home, when they answer a question, encourage your child to answer in a complete sentence, not just yes and no answers. Read daily to them, and then go back and retell the story using your own words. Let them be independent by carrying their own things and help at home with chores. Mrs. Bernal Notes: Phonogram test will include the phonograms taught that week, and on the back of the page the phonograms from the previous week. The purpose of this is to check for retention. Keep practicing all the phonograms at home! Next week, new phonograms will be tested. Also, at the end of the quarter (towards the end of September) students will have a cumulative test for the 26 single letter phonograms. What we learn this week! Spalding:  This week, students were introduced to phonograms:...
