Dear Families,
We have ALL enjoyed the sunshine and warm weather this week!! I'm not sure who is happier about not having to wear coats, hats, gloves or boots - teachers or students😉
The story this week was How I became a Pirate. This book is a fun adventure in which Jeremy Jacobs realizes being a pirate is cool, but maybe not all it’s cracked up to be! While listening to the story, students were working on predicting, retelling, making inferences and telling their opinion. Ask your kindergartner what their favorite part of the story was.
Our vocabulary words this week were repair and slather. Ask us to use these two words in a sentence for you!
We made predictions...
and we made inferences, too!
We loved playing our hidden treasure smartboard game while practicing our sight words. We are ALL doing a really great job reading these words. During our Guided Reading time, we are practicing writing these words, too!
This week our phonics focus was on the long u vowel sound using the u_e pattern. Words like tune, tube, cube, and cute are a few of the long u words that we were working on. The students practiced building, reading, and writing these words. Ask us to write a few long u words for you at home, too.
We are wrapping up our Opinion Writing Unit with a piece about the best pet! You will love reading about the pet your child would like to get!!
As always, if you have any questions or concerns, be sure to reach out to us!
💚💛Mrs. Neuville & Mrs. Rocky
