Hello, Room 122 Parents,

 The month of October continues! This past week we enjoyed learning about fall and Fire Prevention.

We look forward to continue to learn new things and having fall fun this month.

Here are our curriculum highlights for this week, as well as any announcements that are related to first graders.

This week in:

Religion

This week, we will finish Lesson 3/"Jesus Grew Up in a Family". We will take the lesson test on Friday.

We will also begin to learn "How to Say the Rosary". October is the month of the rosary.

Math

We will finish Chapter 2 this week.  Last week we focused on memorizing doubles facts. Please continue to review Doubles Facts at home. This will help the children to solve problems quicker. 

We will also learned a strategy called "The Break Apart Strategy". This is sometimes a bit of a challenge but the children are getting it with practice.

We will take the Chapter 2 test on Thursday.

Reading/Spelling/Writing

This week we  will begin Module 2.
This module will take us 3 weeks to complete.

In Fundations this week, we will continue in Unit 2. We will review how to tap out and read words with short vowel sounds.

If you have any questions about the curriculum, please reach out to me.

Have a great week,

Lisa McVeigh
