Dear Parents,
Red Words: 4th Quarter Red Words - almost, does, eight, father, part, floor
Red Word Focus
Our Red Word test this week will be on Friday and will be over the new 4th Quarter Red Words. The words are as follows: almost, does, eight, father, part, and floor. These words are non-decodable words and do not follow the rules of phonics. Students will have these words on their Friday spelling test for two weeks to show mastery.
Green Word Focus
RF.2.3 Know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words
Our “Green Word” pattern/focus for the week will be the vowel team ea (VT) that says short e as in head. Students will complete activities for words that contain this vowel team pattern throughout the week. Please practice these words as your child brings them home on dictation pages. Weekly spelling words may come from the dictation pages. Students will be expected to apply all classroom information to ten or more ea (VT) words on their Friday, March 6th, spelling test.
Reading Focus
Describe how characters in a story respond to major events and challenges.
Describe the overall structure of a story, including describing how the beginning introduces the story and the ending concludes the action.
Guided Reading Groups – We will conclude our reading of the two texts, “The Jr. Iditarod” and the “Last Great Race.” Students will be reviewing graphic and text features within these informational texts. Our two new texts will be centered around the upcoming Iditarod race in Alaska. We will be reading the fictional story titled, “Silver,” and the Magic Tree House Merlin Missions #26, “Balto of the New Dawn.” Our writing focus will be opinion writing, writing to persuade (W.2.1), and our grammar focus will be plural nouns. (CCSS.ELA-L2.1C).
Please note that our final spelling test will be on Friday, March 6, 2020.
Thank you,
Mrs. Arp, Mr. Inman
