Hello Kindergarten Families,
I hope you are all enjoying your weekend. Here are a few things we have been learning this past week:
Comprehension strategy/skill: “Ask and Answer Questions” and “Characters”. We read a fable, a fantasy and a non-fiction selection to go along with our theme “How do baby animals move?”
New High Frequency Word: “we” (please continue to practice “I”, “can”, “the”, “a”)
Phonics: Sound and Spelling of Aa.
Phonemic Awareness: We continue to learn sounds from our sounds wall. We learn how our mouth forms these sounds including what our tongue, teeth and lips are all doing. We work all year on rhyming words, chunking words into syllables, first, middle and last sounds we hear in words, adding and taking away and replacing words in compound words, and blending 3 sounds to make a word (consonant-vowel-consonant or CVC words).
Math: Lesson 5 “Compare Numbers to 5”. We are continuing to practice writing our numbers. We are learning that fixing our mistakes helps us learn and grow.
Thanks so much for sharing your sweet kids with us! Kindergarteners are the best!
