This week in Language Arts we will begin our second spelling unit. The spelling words were sent home with your student on Monday and each day there will be ample time for practice and homework will be given accordingly. Other skills in Language Arts this week include, introduction of new sight words, word families -and, -ang, and grammar practice finding synonyms and antonyms.
Reading this week will be tied into our favorite foods. We will read stories in groups, with a partner, as a class, and individually. We will begin using graphic organizers to get out thoughts together, as well as be better able to write about foods in our journals. We will even type our journal entries on the computers in the library on Thursday. Friday will be fun Friday where we will conclude our favorite foods unit by enjoying some of our favorite foods. If you would like, please send in a sample of your students favorite food for the entire class to try. I am not expecting a lot of food, enough for each person, only a small amount for one taste per student would be good.
We have a lot going on and I am excited about continuing the school year as awesome as the beginning has been!
