It is great to have everyone back in the classroom after our Christmas Break! Thank you for continuing to practice social distancing, hand washing, and mask wearing when outside Trinity to help keep everyone on campus safe.
ELA - We have started a unit on Nursery Rhymes and poems. This week we focused on learning "Ring around the rosie"
This week we continued working on decoding (sounding out and blending back together) CVC words. Students looked at pictures of items then chose the word that goes with the picture, decoded a word and chose the picture that it goes with, isolated beginning, middle, and ending sounds, and circled the word that was dictated to them.
We are continuing to focus on individual letters, letter sounds, and writing each lowercase letter on handwriting paper. We reviewsed all the letters we have worked on so far: m, a, t, o, d, c, g, i, n, s, f, h e, p, z, and v. We have also been working daily to stretch/slide and blend words based on the letter sounds we hear. Check out the video on ClassDojo (in the Helpful Links for Homework Activities event) to see what stretching, sliding and blending looks like.
Students are also working to differentiate between vowels and consonants. Sometimes we write our CVC words (consonant, vowel, consonant words) with a red and blue crayon. The consonants get written in blue and the vowels in red.
Math- We continued to practice skip counting by 5s and 10s as well as started working on identifying 2 equal parts (halves).
