Dear Family Member:
This week our class will be focusing on how landmarks help tell the story of our nation’s history. We will read about and discuss some famous landmarks in the United States.
Here are some activities you can do with your child to help reinforce the skills we’ll be practicing.
Word Workout
- Words to Know: multiplemeaning words You and your child will use the words for this week to try to describe the Washington Monument. Some of the words have more than one meaning, and you will try to use those words more than once.
- Spelling/Phonics: long o (spelled o, ow, o_e, oa, oe) You and your child will take turns spelling the words for this week. One person will read a word out loud, and the other will spell it.
Comprehension: main idea and key details
You will read about the Gateway Arch in St. Louis. Then you will work together with your child to fill out a main idea and details chart.
