Welcome to Mrs. Flomer’s class notes!
I sent a copy of these notes home on Monday to make sure everyone reads some important reminders.
Here’s a look at what we will be doing this week!
Spelling- The new words for this week are: show, row, grow, low, blow, snow, boat, coat, road, toad, great, paper, talk, were. The children will write their spelling words 3x each for homework by Tuesday. They should write 8 sentences by Wednesday. Use at least 5 words in each sentence. The Spelling Test will be this Friday, 3/2.
Phonics- oa and ow words; contractions with ‘ve and ‘re
Language Arts- future tense
Reading: We will read the story Tomas Rivera. The children will read it again at home. The phonics tests will focus on long o words (ow, oa, o-e) and on contraction (a difficult concept for some students). Reading tests will be given on Friday.
Please make sure your child reads the decodable readers that are sent home each night. They should be able to read the stories fluently.
Math- using place value to add; word problems
Science- Unit 4- Plant and Animal Structures
Social Studies- Test Thursday on Unit 3- Book 3 was sent home
Religion- Bible stories about Jesus’ miracles
Weekly Reader- Dr. Seuss
1AA News
We will celebrate Dr. Seuss’ birthday this week and participate with the rest of the school in Read Across America activities. The students will be reading many books by Dr. Seuss.
The kindergarten and 1st grade classes will celebrate the 100th day of school on Friday. We will have a special visitor, and we have lots of activities planned. Please make sure your child completes his/her decorated feet by Wednesday (a note went home on Monday). Also, please let me know if you are able to bake a dozen cookies for Friday.
Our class goes through so many pencils! If you have a box of sharpened pencils, please send them in to school. Thank you!
Have a Great Week!
Mrs. Flomer
