Mrs. Turley's Tidbits for the Week
Room 1's Newsletter
First Full Week of School
In phonics, we started Unit 1 of our Fundations Program. We are learning how to tap out sounds. It was wonderful to see how much the students retained from the First Grade Fundations Program. Bravo, Room 1!
Our Reading curriculum began with a child-written story called My First American Friend. The students enjoyed it. We hope you did too when they brought it home to read to you!
We were able to meet with each of our students 1:1 to have them read to us and assess for a reading level. They really enjoyed this special time! :-)
Math was engaging this week! We learned that math can be found everywhere in our every day life. We started Unit 1 - Measurement by taking the pretest assessment. We will begin the lessons next week. Don't forget to check out the District's website for lessons and topics to support your Second Grader at home.
Math Fluency - We began Reflex Math this week which is a computer-based program to increase fact automaticity. A note will be sent home next week so you have all the information you need to access this program from home. Remember, your child should be striving for that Green Light!
Math is Everywhere!
Math Engagement Activity in Room 1
They used these pictures to make collages. They are hanging on the wall at the entrance to the Primary hall. Please be sure to look at them at Curriculum Night on Wednesday, September 7th.
ATTENTION, ATTENTION PLEASE!!
We promise to be short, sweet, and fun!
