January 20th - January 24th
What
an AMAZING week we had last week. I can say that I was absolutely exhausted by
Friday night. We worked so hard and had so much fun. Our field trip and my
birthday was AMAZING. They talked about Auburn the rest of the week. I love
that field trip because the experiences are so unique. We also rocked our first
spelling test and I couldn’t be prouder! We will continue right along with our
sight words, decoding and blending, and READING! We will also work on our
numbers to 30 and even begin some addition. Most of the kiddos have picked up
on the addition but we are going to actual teach it soon! We will
also
be
preparing
for
our
100th
day

school!
This

mine almost ready! I am also going to be sending home a reader for your kiddo
to practice reading. Just send it back and we’ll send a new one home the next
day! J

•Secret
Tips:
•Everyone
did so great with sounding and blending this past week. Use the blocks and the
magnetic fridge to practice building spelling words. Remember! It’s not memorization! Get them to hear those sounds.
That will be the best benefit that you
can give to them as beginning spellers and readers.
•With
the readers, take them slow! The BEST thing to do is do a picture walk first. All
that means
is to
use the
pictures
to figure
out what
is happening
without reading any words yet. Then, go through and see if you can point out
any sight words. Lastly, practice reading. It’s always
a good
idea to read it multiple times to
build that fluency!
