Welcome Back

 January 10, 2022

Welcome back to school! It was so amazing to see everyone's faces!

We are continuing to work on alphabet awareness, printing and letter sound in the Month of January. Our goal is to have everyone be able to Match all upper and lowercase letters and be able to write the letter without having to sing the alphabet song to figure out which is which. v

We are beginning to work on understanding what a vowel is and will focus on the vowels 'a' and 'i'. Building and reading words that are three letters is a skill towards decoding and writing more words. E. cat, jam, sit, lit etc.

We are working hard to understand the concept of rhyming. While reading the Snowmen at night series the students are listening for rhyming words. This understanding of Rhyming will help with our ability to build word families. This weeks word family was "it". (sit, lit, hit, fit, pit, bit).

This weeks, word work words are: 

-he,

me, 

am, 

going, 

with

Next week we will begin writing sentences with all the words! Woo hoo!

Our class is super lucky to be working with four different teachers! The grade one group is being pulled out for extra letter building skill with Mrs. Linda Trask.  The grade twos are being pulled to do extra targeted reading support with Mrs. Pokalinski and in the afternoon, numeracy building with Ms. B.

We are seeing growth in your little learners.
