Sailing into our Fourth Week!
Week of September 19th
Room 22
It was another great week of learning here in room 22! We practiced the 3 ways to read a book (read the words, read the pictures, and retelling the story). We focused on describing why numbers are even or odd using ten frames and cubes. Students also compared the responsibilities of home, school, and American citizens.
ASEP Reminders: After school clubs (ASEP) start next week. Please talk with your child if they are attending a club. We will have a list of who is attending each club but it is beneficial for students to be aware of any dismissal changes to make the process go more smoothly.
*Please continue to use this link if you still need to sign up for a parent-teacher conference time: Fall Conference.
Calling At Home Volunteers: If you are interested in helping at home I have another job that could use a weekly at home helper! Please email me if you are interested with updating our spelling city list each week.
Ways to extend learning at home:
*Ask your child to count objects at home and identify if the number is odd or even. Encourage them to explain why they know that number is odd or even!
*Ask your child to listen to a story and retell the story in either pictures or words.
Looking Ahead
Math- Students will gain extra practice in identifying even and odd numbers next week.
Reading- Students will begin to practice all of our daily 5 centers next week including listen to reading and work on writing!
Writing- Small moments will be our focus for the first quarter of 2nd grade!
Content- Students will be studying a variety of famous Americans next week. We will learn about important people such as Abraham Lincoln, Susan B. Anthony, and Martin Luther King Jr. I have attached a digital copy of the study guide; please be aware that students will begin this next week but I wanted to give you a copy just in case.
