The week of Nov. 15-19

How about those CHIEFS?  If you're a Chiefs fan, it was sure nice to have an earned win!

We are back in the swing of things after me being gone on Friday.  We are still learning expected behaviors when a sub. is here.  She had a rough day, so we'll keep having the needed conversations about behavior when I'm gone.

Enjoy the pics below of when our veteran, Joe Hanks, was here last Thursday!  He was kind to let the kids try on his army gear.  

Phonics:  This week we are practicing more blends with the s blends at the beginning of the word.  (st, sw, sc, sl, sm, sn, sp, sk). We will also be learning there are blends at the end of the word like: tent, belt, lamp, gift, pond, mask.

Optional Homework:  We were not able to complete all of the (l blend) unit in one week.  I sent home the last page for your child to do at home.  If they bring it back, I will reward them. :)

New high frequency words:  which, from, call, very

Math this week is working on subtraction to 20 and using all of the strategies we have learned to solve problems.  The kids are doing well using what works best for them!

We are finishing up our science unit filling out our Know-Want to know-Learned. The kids learned so much during our moon unit and were able to answer all of the questions they had before we studied the moon.  

This week in science we are going to learn more about our planets and the stars.  Each student will get their birthday month constellation printed and they will add a gold star for each star on their constellations.

Each student will get to choose a planet to make out of modeling clay. Then, they will get to paint it and keep for themselves!

Lastly, we are going to get to make the phases of the moon out of oreos!  They will love this, because they will get to eat some of the oreos when we are done!

It's going to be a fun way to end our solar system unit!!

Keep reviewing the sight words lists!  

Please work on teaching your child to tie their shoes!
