I hope everyone had a great, relaxing Christmas break! I’m excited to get back to school and settle into our normal routine!
REMINDERS:
-Library books are due on Tuesday!
-Extra credit is due by Tuesday to receive credit.
-Dress for the weather--every student should bring a winter coat each day.
-Hot lunch is no longer offered.
Christian Studies:
This week in Christian Studies we’ll be learning about Jonah and the minor
prophets. We’ll discuss the messages God
sent through them and how it points to Jesus.
We’ll also discuss Nehemiah rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem and how we
fix what is broken in our lives.
Math:
This week is a short module on using a hundreds chart and a number line to add
and subtract. We’ll review and practice
counting strategies, getting us ready to do some double-digit adding and
subtracting in future modules.
Language Arts:
This week’s phonics concepts will be review of the last few several concepts we
learned: diphthongs oi/oy and ou/ow, igh,
and the 3 Great Rules (doubling, drop the “e,” and change the “y” to an “i”). We’ll do some practice each day and our
spelling words will be pulled from the daily practices.
We’ll also start a new week in our
reading books. This week we’ll read What’s
in the Egg, Little Pip? We’ll focus
on reading strategies that help us understand the text better, specifically the
characters. We’ll also discuss the
characteristics of fiction and identify those characteristics in our story as
we read.
