Bubble Gum Words
We have started Bubble Gum words. In your child’s folder is a pink list of 10 words. When your child reads this list of words 3 times to me they will receive a piece of bubble gum. At that time, they will move onto the next list of 10 words. Please practice these words at home. We want to make them “stick!”

Reading: Introduced the reading strategy “Flippy Dolphin.” This will help them in tapping out words by switching the vowel sound from a short sound to a long sound.
Writing: Continued to work on our persuasive writing about our favorite holiday. These writings have a topic sentence, 2 reasons, and a conclusion.
Science: Finished talking about the four seasons and all of the changes that each season brings to weather and activities.
