Cougar Reading- We will participate in a short grammar unit this week as we identify subjects and preciates in given sentences.
Reading- We will continue making personal and text to text connections this week as we reread the selection Asha In The Attic and enjoy a poem about an old fashioned soda shop. Our first theme test will be given this week. Benchmarking has begun! Every child will be given an individual reading test to determine their placement in small reading groups. Also, DIBELS testing will be done on Tuesday the 4th.
Spelling- Short vowels words will be studied and assessed this week. Your child took a pre-test on Friday and has been placed in one of three spelling groups next week. Look for your child's list to come home on Tuesday. Our first spelling test will be given on Friday, September 7th. (It will be a practice test and will not count)
Math- The students are practicing addition facts and will focus on the strategy of making 10s to add this week. Our first math test will take place on Friday, September 7th.
Science- We will continue learning about the five food groups in class. This week we will write a vegetable riddle with the help of Princess Peapod and learn about fruits with Queen Anna Banana. We are learning so much from these royal characters and having a blast! Students can color in extra bubbles on their bubble chart everyday this week for bringing in healthy snacks.
Writing- The Writing Process will be introduced this week and we will spend time learning about the first step in the process: Prewriting.
