Resumes
Math: On Friday we had our unit six assessment, which focused on subtraction
facts to 20. Assessments were sent home
with your child. A new unit will begin
after break.
After Christmas vacation, we will begin
first grade math facts. Look for a
notice about this process in your child’s red folder next week.
Phonics: We will wrap up work in unit six next week. This unit has covered basewords and the
suffix s ending. Your child’s assessment
will come home next week. After break
students will begin work in our seventh unit with Mrs. Arbuckle, which covers
additional glued sounds (and, ing, ong, ung, ank, ink, onk, and unk).
Guided Reading: In
January, teachers will complete a mid-year benchmark
reading assessment with your child. As
each child has grown tremendously with their reading ability, new reading
groups will be created with the new information. This will be a good time for you as parents
to learn more about what books are appropriate for independent reading at
home.
Religion: In religion we have continued discussing the Christmas story
as well as reviewing Advent and the Christmas season.
