Reading
· Reading groups are well under
way – we are meeting with small groups of children daily to work on decoding
and comprehension skills. We are
also working on beginning and ending sounds, and reading
rhyming words. Please continue to read, read, read with your child. The more
they read, they more they know!
Writing
We are making great strides with our writing. Pictures
are more detailed, and letters are becoming words and sentences. We will be using
our sight words in our sentences and spelling them correctly.
Math
· Our
next unit is all about numbers. We are counting and writing our
numbers 0 - 31. We are making groups of objects and comparing
amounts. We are comparing numbers and their relationship to each other.
The end
of year goal is to count to 100 by 1s and 10s. Practice at home.
Counting is fun!
Science/Social
