Dear Room 112 Families, October 19, 2015 wk 7
What a WOW! Week in Rm. 112 thanks to the parents and students! Students are in the swing of things. Parents came in to be recess coaches & lunch helpers, a parent donated a year’s worth subscription to Zoo Books, another came in and laminated / cut labels for the classroom, a parent printed color copies, another came to translate for native Chinese speakers to ensure they were following and understanding our morning routine, a parent lead the ELL reading group one day, and a parent managed the shopping for coupons earned with brain bucks last Friday. A couple reminders:
THIS WEEK IN: WORD STUDY Students will be doing sorting activities throughout the week in their word study notebooks to prepare for their spelling test on Friday. READING we will read Stellaluna. Students will dig deeper into the text through each reading. We will discuss the meanings of the vocabulary words and identify the setting, characters and story parts in the text. We will work on alphabetical order, the sound for short vowels and the ending –ck. WRITING This week n writing we will work more on planning personal narratives and working with peers to revise and edit our writing. MATH In math we will explore patterns in numbers and learn about a new routine called “Frames and Arrows.” Students will do more work with number stories and look at number models that correlate. We will use the 10 frames and play Rolling to 50. SCIENCE In science we will make parachutes and look at how air pressure can be contained and built. SOCIAL STUDIES We will discuss our families as it relates to their history, present, and future. Please send in a picture of your child’s family, if you haven’t already.
