Coming Up Next Week:
Phonics- our new letter is the vowel Ee as in elephant. We will work on unblending sounds in words.
 
Math – We will continue to work on addition by acting out and drawing addition problems. We are having so much fun with this!
 
Reading – Our new story is Hide Clyde. We are practicing the comprehension skill Main Idea.
 

Tips and Tricks:
We are working hard on reading nonsense words. These are not real words; students need to apply their phonics skills to read them. They will be tested on these words near the end of the year. Example: zum, kav, mon, tam. Please practice the nonsense word sheet at home as well. They can be written on flashcards or read off of the sheet. Whatever works best for your child!
