Reading: We will continue on unit 4: Lesson 18:Oceans and Waterways. We will listen to the story, "One-Dog Canoe," in order to identify the setting, characters, and problem in the story. We will listen to the story, "Atlantic," in order to understand the Author's purpose. We will identify key details from the story. We will use our book handling skills in order to read "Will It BE Big?" and "Rip Is It" in our student readers in small groups. I can use clues from the pictures to help me read. We will review, identify, write and read the 6 new sight words from lesson 16; be, into, that, who, will & your. We will use our sight words to write/read them in sentences. We will recognize, write, and learn the beginning sound of the letter, Rr- Reggie Rooster. We will continue reviewing rhyming, initial, ending and middle sounds, and parts of a word with Heggerty.

Handwriting: We will be working on our FIRST & LAST names Kindergarten style. A capital letter at the beginning of our name and the rest lowercase. (ie. Liam Wolf).
Religion: We will identify choices we have made and can make. We will identify loving, unloving, and preference choices. We will listen to the Gospel, Jesus Makes Good Choices."
Social Studies: We will continue our study of Black History Month. We will understand that people have different skin colors, cultures, and backgrounds, and that all are important and valued. We will recognize that fairness means treating others with kindness and respect. We will connect the idea of courage to standing up for what is right. We will learn about Mae Jemison, Ruby Bridges, and Jackie Robinson to finish out our study.
SCHOLASTIC BOOK CLUB:
Our class is excited to read with Scholastic Book Clubs! It’s a great way to build up your child’s book collection at home and help them improve their reading skills. And when you shop with Clubs, your orders earn points I can redeem for books and other classroom supplies we need.
Here’s how it works: I’ll send home flyers like these throughout the year. If you decide to place an order, you can do that through our class ordering page. Your books will arrive at school about 10 days after I submit our classroom order.
By teaming up with Scholastic, we’ll help your child become a more confident, independent reader—and we’ll build a classroom library all of my students are excited to explore!
