Week of Oct. 22 - Oct. 26

Posted: October 21, 2012

Here are a few things happening this week.   *  In Literacy, we will be working with the letter I i this week.  The letter I i is a hard working vowel because it has two sounds.  The short i sound is the sound of our Zoo Phonics animal, Inny Inchworm and can also be heard in words such as, inch, ill, it, is, in, lick, bit, and dip.  The long i sound says its own name and can be found in words such as, ice, iceburg, idea, rice, hive, smile, and bride.  Show and Tell will be on Friday so have fun searching with something that begins with the /i/ sound.   *  In Math, the kids are learning about more, fewer, and as many as.  They are catching on fast and doing a wonderful job.   *  Interim Reports go home on Wednesday, Oct. 24th so please look for them in your child's bookbag and sign and return the bottom portion.
