This week we worked super hard on on math pre-formative assessment! We are ALMOST finished with it (there are eight separate parts!) We also started worked hard writing narrative stories during writer's workshop, and recalled details about characters during reader's workshop! We spent the week reading books by Kevin Henkes. Ask your child which book was his or her favorite!
Don’t forget that school will not be in session for students on Friday, September 4th and Monday, September 7th!
WORD LISTS
A first grade word wall list came home today. This is a copy of the words we will be focusing on and adding to our word wall each week. Your students will probably know most of these words from kindergarten. That is GREAT news! Now we will focus on consistently spelling them in our writing correctly and being able to recognize them right away. We used the “week 1” words this week, so next week we will continue with “week 2.” It is a great idea to practice spelling, writing, and reading these words with your child.
