Hello! Sorry for the lack of updates and pictures...my camera is broken and I haven't had the time (or money) to go and have it repaired. Hopefully over the holidays I can take it somewhere!
Here is what is going on this week:
Spelling--our spelling/phonics rules are getting a little more complicated! We are learning that the "long a" sound is spelled a_e like in the word cake, that "c" can make a /s/ sound when an "i" or an "e" comes after it...like in the the word circle and ice. We are also learning that "g" can make a "j" sound when a "i" or an "e" comes after it...like in the word gem and giant.
During workstations your child will be making an ABC order winter words book, making an elf glyph, sorting -th, -wh, and -sh words, and writing a story about what they have in their cupboard at home.
Last week in math we used our number grids to count forward and back. We also did a lot of skip counting by 2's, 5's and 10's. This week, we will be using number lines. The class will be playing lots of math games to help them reinforce their addition facts this week as well as odd and even numbers.
Since we have LDC this week, our new PYP planner will start next week. The central idea is that pictures and symbols help us determine where we are in place and time.
