Homework Help: 3/10/14-3/14/14
Our spelling pattern this week is "r-controlled vowels". Simply, words that have "er", "ir", and "ur" in them! These are known as the "bossy r" sounds! All of these letter combinations make the same sound :)
Have students create their own review cards :) Write the pattern on one side. Then, on the other have the student write a word with the pattern and circle it. They should have three cards total.
Bossy R Parking Lot: Check out this website for a fun game that students will love :)

Math:
This week we are working on fractions with circles! They will be learning what a "whole" is, "half of" and a "quarter of".
Fraction Food: Order pizza this week, make a cake, or eat a cookie (any circle food really) and have students divide the food into a half and a fourth. Focus on the idea that both of those are part of a whole item :) Our class loves to eat so this should be fun!
HOPE THIS HELPS! If you have any questions feel free to contact me :)
