Welcome to Mrs. Flomer’s class notes!

 

I hope everyone had a great weekend!

 

Here’s a look at what we will be doing this week!

 

Spelling– The words for this week are: yet, web, pen, wet, leg, hen. The “R” book words are: all, me, does, my, here, who. The children will write all 12 words 3x each for homework by Thursday. There will be a Spelling test on Friday on all the words.

 

Phonics– We will focus on the sounds of short e, y, w, k, v, j.

 

Language Arts– adjectives

 

Reading: We will read the story Lucia’s Neighborhood . The children will bring home their Reading book to read the story again at home.   There will be Reading tests on Friday. As usual, the vocabulary part of the test will have the “R” book words.   The children should read Lucia’s Neighborhood and focus on what the pictures show, and the labels on the pictures in the story. There is a short fable of “The City Mouse and the Country Mouse” in the reading book (pages 114-116) and the children will have to compare it to Lucia’s Neighborhood (how they are the same and different). There are also a few questions on the test about ABC order of words.

 

Math– We will be reviewing the concepts learned in Chapter 2 (subtraction). They will take a practice test in class on Wednesday, and they can use it to study for Thursday’s test.

Social Studies– Our Neighbors

Weekly Reader– Meet Tedd Arnold (author of the Fly Guy books)
