Math - We will continue to solve word problems with sums up to 10 as well as count to 120 by 10's. We will continue to represent numbers in expanded form, word form, and base ten blocks. We will compare numbers with less than, greater than and equal symbols.
Fun videos to watch with your child:
Reading: We will learn two more reading strategies: Flippy Dolphin and Chunky Monkey. These reading strategies, along with the others, help us solve tricky words when we are reading.
Writing: We will continue our narrative writing unit. We are doing a great job using transition words (first, next, last) to help tell a story from beginning to end.
Phonics/Spelling: We will concentrate on the short /u/ sound in words.
**Please make sure that you are practicing reading the first group of sight words with your child. There are 13 words in the first group. If your child can already read the first group of words, please start on the second group to get a head start.
Social Studies - Next week we will talk about our leaders in our government. We will talk about the roles of the mayor, the governor, and the president and how they affect our lives.
**Most Fridays we do a Mind Mission in Social Studies. Mind Missions are designed to help your child learn how to problem solve, while working in a group. Don't forget to ask your child about what Mind Mission they did on Friday! Mind Missions help us practice problem solving, leadership, growth mindset, cooperation, patience, sharing, and presenting to a group. We love it!
Science - We will continue to discuss the properties of matter as well as predict and identify changes in materials caused by cooling and heating.
