READING
Our first unit in reading is called
“Friendship”. We will be reading many
books and discussing how to be a good friend.
We will talk about character traits that make a good friend.
Next week we will be doing the MAPS testing Monday
through Thursday for 30 minutes. This
gives us a way to chart your child’s progress in reading and math.
Spelling
Next week I will be
sending home a spelling word sort. This
is a practice word sort, so the children learn how to sort their spelling
words. The week of September 18th,
they will come home with their real spelling words to sort and learn. The first spelling test will be on September
29th.
MATH
Next week we will
be working on using drawings and equations to represent problems and repeated
addition. We will have our first chapter
test.
