In Reading we will start a new story titled, This Is the Way We Go to School. It
is a fiction story about children around the world. We will work with the letter sounds /y/ and /kw/
for the letters Yy and Qq. The
comprehension skill we will focus on with this story is drawing conclusions. Watch
for your new Family Times newsletter
and have your child practice the Words to
Read!
In Math, we will finish with Topic 11
Decomposing Numbers 11 to 19 and will begin Topic 12 Measurement. We will be
comparing objects by length, height, capacity, and weight. Please
