Our Academic Agenda
Language Arts:
Phonics Focus – This week we will continue in unit 2 of Fundations and practice blending and reading three-sound short vowel words (also known as CVC words). We will also continue to segment and spell them. New trick words will be introduced this week as well! These words are not sounded out, but rather remembered as if by sight.
Trick words for this week: is, his & of.
Writing Focus – This week students will be visualizing and writing about what they want to be when they grow up. We will remain focused on capitalizing letters at the beginning of sentences and placing periods at the end. Students will be rereading their writing to check to see that it makes sense as well as relating illustrations to their writing as best they can.
Literature Connection: When I Grow Up by Peter Horn
Math: This week students will continue to analyze and solve related story problems and participate in activities that require combining two numbers up to a total of 20. They will also remain focused on using pictures, numbers, words and/or standard notation to represent a solution to a problem that requires addition. By the end of the week, students will begin understanding, representing and solving problems involving subtraction.
