If you have any items at home that begin with this letter, send them over with your child and we will be discussing them in class, we will display them on a table and we will return them back on Friday. The kids get excited to bring things from home.


Some of the stories that we will be reading this week are:

We are going to find out what happens when Victor Viper gives his pal Vera a valentine in this very funny tale that teaches the letter V.

All of Louis thoughts are very important to him. In fact, his thoughts are so important to him that when he has something to say, his words begin to wiggle, and then they do the jiggle, then his tongue pushes all of his important words up against his teeth and he erupts, or interrupts others. His mouth is a volcano! 
    





Bug! Rug! Mug! Hug! These dust bunnies love to rhyme. Well, except for Bob. Much to the other bunnies’ frustration, Bob can never get the rhythm right. Then he saves everyone from a big, scary monster wielding—gasp!—a broom, and they all breathe a sigh of relief. But can Bob save them from the big, scary monster’s next attack? Vrrrrrroooommm...

We will continue working with the sight words: her, has all,if, girl,boy . We are now up to 54 sight words!!! Please practice them with your child at home!!!
It is important for students to learn sight words in order to help them become fluent readers.

Remember that sight words are words students are able to read upon “sight” without having to sound them out. They help facilitate reading comprehension giving students a better opportunity to understand other words in context as they read.




We will be practicing Rhyming and Phoneme substitution . The students will learn how to remove the consonant (first letter) and add a new consonant to make a new word.


 In Math we will be reviewing Plane shapes and  introducing Solid Figures. We will be looking around the classroom for these types of shapes and we will be discussing objects in our environment that can represent each shape. 

If you have any items at home that can be useful to teach this unit, we would greatly appreciate sending  them to school. You might want to look around your house for a ball, a dice, paper towel tube, etc. 








In Social Studies this week,  we will be learning about Presidents George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.
