**No School Monday, February 16. Enjoy the day off of School.**
MATH
The class is enjoying exploring shapes in our world. They have been busy creating pictures using a variety of shapes. This week we move into our study of 3-D shapes. Our focus is knowing the difference between 2-D and 3-D and then it will shift to comparing and analyzing them. Here is another fun shape video that includes many more shapes!
ELA
The sight words we are focusing on are an, big, many and now. During skills we are doing lots of sound work!! We will practice rhyming through word families. The word family for this week is -op. (Practice asking your child what words rhyme with "top." Please make sure all their responses are real words~ do not accept pretend words like "zop" or "qop" as an answer.) We will practice segmenting sounds in words ("chopping it up"), an example is "zoo." When the students segment this word we expect to hear two separate sounds= /z/ /oo/. We will be practicing producing ending sounds for words and writing lowercase letters.

I mentioned in last week's post our
Reading lesson would go into this week and it has. Students will be asked to retell the story RUN AWAY!
by Gerald McDermott. If they use the sequencing vocabulary~ First, Next, Then, Last,
Finally, etc. that is great! If they don't, that is great too. :) What we are looking for is that the students can retell the story in the order the events happen. I expect this to take two days (36 students is A LOT!) So Wednesday and Friday we will listen to Valentine stories and practice retelling those stories.
**Make sure to practice this standard at home!
SCIENCE
At the beginning of the week are wrapping up our brief unit on near, far, things appearing big and small depending on where we are observing them. On Thursday as we travel the zoo we will observe plants and animals, describe how they are alike and how they are different in the way they look and in the things they do. Then on Friday we practice science as we graph and create representations of our our work using Valentine candies! It should be a really sweet time!!
