Kindergarten
The new letters for this week are p & j. We will continue to learn their sounds and write them correctly. Students will be asked to listen to sounds at the end of words. They will read asking sentences and become aware of what a question mark is. Students will listen to the story, Baby Echo Flies, and will be asked to retell it in their own words.
1st Grade
Students will begin Unit 9 this week. This unit focuses on closed syllables. Closed syllables can only have one vowel, the vowel is followed by one or more consonants (closed in) and the vowel sound is short. It is important for students to visually recognize a closed syllable so they can apply the short vowel sound to decode the word.
2nd Grade
Students will read Jalapeno Bagels. The leveled story is A Gift For Yoshi. The vocabulary words are origami, crane, mobile, cradle, culture, bakery, customer, dough and recipes.
