Week of January 14-18, 2013

I am all done with testing!  I am very excited about picking up my friends (which I now have a few more new faces to teach!)

In my Kindergarten groups we will just review the sounds of the alphabet with an array of activites using picture cards, i-Pads, SMARTBoards, magnets, gel boards, etc.  We will begin on sounding and blending words next week.

In my Level 1 groups we will be working on Unit 6, which concentrates on the suffix s.  We will be reading and spelling words and sentences with words with -s- at the end.  Examples are: halls, jams, sits, bags.

In my Level 2 groups we will be working on Unit 7, which concentrates on open syllables.  Those are words with the long vowel sounds at the end of the syllable (word).  We will be reading and spelling those types of words.  Examples are: shy, duty, remote.

Reminder: No School on Friday 1/18 and Monday 1/21!
