Math: On Thursday we had our unit 5 assessment, which focused on addition
facts to 20. Assessments were sent home
with your child. We began our 6th
unit on Friday. We began by making 10 as
an easy number to help us subtract. Up
next is using related facts and fact families to help in solving subtraction
problems.
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 we
will begin work in our seventh unit, which covers additional glued sounds (and,
ing, ong, ung, ank, ink, onk, and unk).
Religion: In religion we have continued discussing the Christmas story
as well as reviewing Advent and the Christmas season.
Enjoy your weekend.
