Welcome to Mrs. Flomer’s class notes!

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

 

Spelling– The words for this week are: am, at, sat, man, dad, mat. The children will write their spelling words 3x each for homework, and they should be handed in by Wednesday. We did the first 2 words together in class to show the children how to write in their “S” books. There will be a Spelling test on Friday. The high frequency words (in the “R” book) are: and, you, be, play, help, with. They are going to be the challenge words on the test as extra credit for now.

 

Phonics– We will focus on the sounds of n, d, p and f.

 

Language Arts– Nouns

 

Reading: We will read the story What is a Pal this week. The children will bring home their reading books by Wednesday to read the story again at home. The books should be returned to school on Friday.   There will be a reading workbook coming home each night that will reinforce the concepts taught in class (that will be on Friday’s tests). The page(s) will be circled that the children need to complete. They may not always be in order. There will be Reading tests on Friday. The tests will be: comprehension (of this week’s story), phonics (short a words), and vocabulary (“R” book words).

 

Math– commutative property of addition; addition strategies

There will be a Math test on Chapter 1, next Tuesday, 9/26

 

Religion– Read and discuss the stories of “The Great Flood” and “God’s Promise to Abram”.

 

Science– Unit 1- Technology

Social Studies– Families

 

1AA News

Individual and Class pictures will be taken this Thursday, 9/21.  Please return your order form by Thursday.

I am looking forward to speaking to all of the parents at Back to School Night on Thursday, 9/21 at 7 p.m.

Scholastic book orders were sent home last week. Please return your order form with payment if you would like books for your child, or you can easily place an order online. Our classroom receives free books and materials from Scholastic if we order each month! I have extended the return date to Tuesday, 9/19.

 

Please encourage your child to read every night to help strengthen his/her skills. They should be reading for about 15 minutes each day.

Remember to send in your child’s pizza money by Thursday of each week.

 

Have a great week, and feel free to email me any time with questions or concerns: [email protected]
