This week in:
Readers Workshop: We will begin guided reading groups! I am so excited about this! Your child will meet with me or Mrs. Cannon every day in a small group. We will meet your child where they are in reading and coach them forward. Each night your child will bring home a "just right' book in their reading bag. This book is on their instructional level so they may make mistakes and that's ok. I read with them on this level to see what strategies they are using and what strategies they need when they come to an unknown word.
Math Workshop:We will begin representing teen numbers. We will use double ten frames, number lines, tally marks, numerals, etc....
Writer's Workshop:We are working on concepts of print. Starting at the top left and writing across, returning, finger space, punctuation, etc....
Concepts:We will begin our All About Me unit this week! On Friday, you child will bring home directions and a bag. Please help your child fill their bag this weekend and send the bag to school on Tuesday. We look forward to learning more about our friends and what makes them special!
Reminders
*No school on Monday
*Homework will begin this week! It will come home in your child's monkey binder on Mondays and it is due the following Monday.
*Just right reading bags will come home beginning this week. Please have your child read the book inside and return to school daily just like the monkey binder. If your child forgets to bring home their book in a bag it is ok. Just read a book from home. :) If your child forgets to return the book in the bag to school it is ok. Just return as soon as possible. :)
Working hard on his writing!
We started our king and queen of the jungle! When your child is selected they will bring home our class pet Coconut! Please take pictures of all the things your child does with Coconut and send them to school the next day for your child to share!
We have learned that we are all readers! We have been practicing reading the pictures and telling ourselves and our partners what is going on in the book. Next week we will start our guided reading groups with the teachers! We are all excited about learning to read!
Have a wonderful long weekend with your sweet little monkey! Mrs Cannan and I are already looking forward to next week! :)
