**Please send in a baseball cap for your child to use as a prop during the program. :)
READING:
Our focus text for this week is All I Am; we will also be reading several Fancy Nancy texts, as we look for Fancy Vocabulary words that we can use in our own conversations & writing. This week we will be working on the digraphs th & wh and our last 2 sight words are of & all. We will continue our end of the year assessments this week as well.
WRITING:
This week we will wrap up our how-to book about things we know how to do outside. We will be adding a ‘materials needed’ page, warnings & tips, and an ‘about the expert’ page. We will also complete a Type 3 writing about lifecycles and work on editing and fancying up our pieces.
MATH:
This week we will practice ordering numbers from smallest to largest and work on addition to 7. Students will take their end of the year Aimsweb assessment where they will be given 1 minute to do each of the following skills—oral counting, number identification (0-10), identify the missing number in a sequence, and identify the bigger number. It will be exciting to see their growth. :)
