Dear Families,
This week we worked on the long a vowel sound using the a_e pattern. Words like cake, shake, made, and tape are a few of the long a words that we were working on. The students practiced building the words and reading the words.
The story this week was Chickens Aren't the Only Ones. It is a nonfiction story about all the oviparous animals- animals that lay eggs. Ask your kindergartner to tell you about an oviparous animal.
Here is a link to the video for you to enjoy!
We work on a poem each week. This week's poem is called "Oviparous" It was perfect to go along with our story this week. We created movements, looked for rhyming words, and sorted out word families. We are sure you have heard this poem often at home!
In writing, we are continuing to work on our opinion stories. We use OREO to help us remember to write our stories. O is for opinion R is for reason E is for extra reason O is for opinion. We have worked on writing our opinions on our favorite fruit and our favorite dinner. Ask your kindergartner all about their opinion writing.
During science, we are learning about plants. We have discussed what plants need to grow and live.
