 Phonics

  We will begin learning the letter “S” as in sun and snake.  Wordlist #3 was sent home today in the communication folder, and it will be tested at the end of next week.  Please practice all week blending the wordlist words so that your child can find success reading them.

Math

We are working on ordering numbers through ten. The (standard) is for the children to be able to count forward beginning from a given number within the known sequence (instead of having to begin at one).

Reading

We will begin the story ”A Bed for the Winter”.  The genre is informational text, and and the comprehension skill is sequence.  The skill taught in our last story was “main idea”.  A good way to help your child with this is after reading a story together, discuss what the story was about.

FYI

.  There will be no school on Nov. 18^th due to an Act 80 day.  Parent-teacher conferences will be held from 12:00-6:00pm.  I am sending a second form in your child’s folder with your conference time on it because I accidentally skipped the time on some of the original forms.  Sorry!!!!

Monday November 18^th is the kick off for the Bowl for Kids Sake Event, Check your child’s folder for the fundraiser packets.
