ABC Animal Research Project

ABC  Animal Research Project

Today I sent home a small storyboard to research about an animal.    Please work together as a family to find information about  your child's animal.  Add pictures, drawings, fun facts,  to the story board.  We will be using this information to write "Informative" stories.  Thanks so much for all your help:


Reading Update
·         In our reading groups we are learning letter names, letter sounds, blending words, segmenting words ( for example:  The sounds in cat are: C-A-T, and introducing sight (heart) words.  We have learned the words:  I,   like,  the, and see we so far. This week we will learn the word “to.” 

·       This week we will focus on the letter “Cc”.  We will become letter experts!  We will practice writing the letter using correct letter formation, brainstorm words that begin with the letter, make scrapbook pages for each letter and many more literacy based projects.

Writing
We are working on writing informative stories.  The students wrote about something they know about.  We will continue this writing unit until January.


Math
·      Number writing 1-10
·      We are working on developing number sense to 5, and different ways to represent the number 5, 6, and 7.

      Have a great 3 day Weekend!
