*Homeward Bound books - please read on a nightly basis. Students are required to read these books at home.

Social Studies:

We have been studying about citizenship in the classroom over the past few weeks. Responsibility is a big part of citizenship in the classroom, our world, and at home. You will find in your child's backpack a "Responsibility Pledge." Our class has been learning about responsibility. Your child has pledged that he or she will be responsible for a task at home. Each day that your child shows responsibility with this task, please write the date with your initials. This pledge is to be returned on Friday, September 26, 2014. The activity will be a grade in Progress Book.

Spelling: Spelling test tomorrow, Friday, September 25, 2014. Practice red words, green words, and green word syllabication. Red Words - eight, eye, father

Green Words: seven, nine, Friday, Saturday, February, March, synonym

Please Note:

This week students will transition to words of more than one syllable. The students will be shown how easily the detached syllables are formed into big words. The students will learn to identify/underline vowels in words completing a (VC/CV) pattern. These words will be practiced this week from Monday through Wednesday. Your child will use the practiced words in class to identify (VC/CV) patterns within words on the Friday spelling test.
