We have a great week planned and lots of learning will be taking place!! Wednesday is an Early Release Day. Friday is Fancy Friday and School Picture Day! Graham will be bringing in Fun Friday Snacks for the Whole Class!! Our Resources this week are Monday~MUSIC, Tuesday~MUSIC and Friday~ MEDIA.
MATH
This week we are going to continue to focus on the numbers 0-5. We will be practicing counting forwards and backwards, recognizing and writing the numbers, and comparing the numbers using more and less. We will be working with our buddies in activities to visualize the numbers. Throughout the week we will be reading the book Five Little Monkeys and discuss what's happening to the numbers. Please continue working on the quarterly goals.

WRITING
We are honing in on our details in settings, along with reviewing the details in our people. Together we will focus on the details that we will see at a pool and a playground. We are asking the students what they see in the sky, on the ground and all around them. We discuss how a reader wants to look at the picture and get a story in their mind.
SAXON/READING SKILLS
Our Saxon letter this week is letter Tt. We will focus on producing the sound and figuring out the beginning sounds of pictures, some with /t/ and some with /h/, /l/, /o/ or /g/. You may have also noticed on your child's Saxon paper that we have begun stretching out words and coding our short vowels with a breve. (A breve looks like a smiley face above a vowel.)
Our Sight Words for the week are: blue, yellow, me, no.
Make sure to be practicing letter recognition and producing sounds in a mixed up order. When we go to test before Report Card time we will assess the students on any items they answered wrong last time. Our tests do not assess in alphabetical order.
We're including a fun Florida Alphabet Song that is sure to get your child singing along!!
READING
If you have never listened to this story, make sure to listen to it!! This is one of our favorites and we're sure it'll be one of the classes favorite story book's too. We will be working on prediction~ what the students think will have when Katie Sue goes on the playground without permission from the student Mean Jean... We will work on inferring with text evidence~ why had Mean Jean gotten so mean to the other students? We will again be working on retelling in our Reading Journals using pictures and we will work on Opinion Writing by telling what we liked and did not like in the story.
