Guiding Readers
The story for next week is One Tiny Turtle by Nicola Davies.
Word Study/Spelling
We will be moving on to review VCe review. We will be reading and spelling words with the VCe pattern. This is reviewing long vowel sounds in words with the silent E. Vowels make their long sound, or say their name.
Word study examples: use, cave, dime, froze, June.
Sight words: were, thank, had, some, her
Writing
Everyone is doing super with opinion writing. The kiddos enjoy writing their feelings and supporting their opinion.
Reading Assessments
I have started to assess ALL the kiddos for their current reading levels. This data will be passed on to next year’s teacher. This is the time of year when many families have stopped practicing at home and the summer slide begins. Please keep reading. 🙂
We will be working on testing for the final NWEA test for the year. I will be starting small testing groups hopefully next week.
Math
I have already administered the NWEA math test to most of the kids. There are only about 4 students they need to complete it.
We moved into Volume 2 of our math book and started working with the 120’s chart and understanding 10 more/10 less.
FYI
Friday, May 3rd is a 1/2 for students due to staff professional development in the afternoon.
Have a great weekend!! 🙂
