Language Arts
Multiple Meaning Words
This week we will be learning about multiple meaning words. These words are referred to as homonyms. They are words like: duck- a bird/duck- to bend down. Students will be able to choose the correct meaning of the word based on content in the sentence or by using pictures. Look for these words isn books you're reading with your scholar.
Phonics
Writing
We continue to practice writing skills. We remember that sentences start with capital letters. The words have spaces between them and all sentences end with punctuation. We have been working on stories that have a beginning, middle and end.
High Frequency Words
Our words this week are: came, could, again
Please practice reading these words and the other high frequency words we have learned. We chose the words based on the high frequency with which they are used. There is a list in your notebooks and the words come home on the homework calendars. Your child should be able to read these words without hesitation.
Math
We also continue to work on addition and subtraction. Please review teens numbers with your scholar.
Science
We discuss the weather daily. We talk about how the weather impacts our lives. It determines how we dress and what we do. We discuss the seasons and how to recognize the different seasons of the year. Ask your scholar to tell you about Fall and Winter.
