Happy Valentine's Day to all!!!!!!

What we are learning:

Reading: In whole group we will be reading the big book In the Yard.   We will be working on phoneme isolation, blending, and segmentation.  We will be listening for the initial sound /b/ and our new high-frequency for this week are and & do.  For comprehension, we will be identifying the main idea and details in a story.  In small groups, we will continue reading short sentences and stories, flashing high-frequency words, etc. according to each child’s level.

**Practice high frequency words:  I, can, we, the, like, a, see, go, to, is, play, are, for, you, this, do, and, what, little, & said**

Spelling: Our words for this week are: sit, bit, clip, hip, fix, drip, on, as, are, & was. We will be using the Promethean Board, playing a variety of games, and writing them. We will take our Spell Check on Friday.

Handwriting: We will be concentrating on writing the letters Ww and Xx using correct formation and spacing.

Religion: Our Bible story for the week is the Good Samaritan.  We LOVE this story.  Our Bible verse for this week is: Jesus said, "Take this and share it.”  Luke 22:17.  We will learn that Jesus shared a special meal with his friends and He shares himself with us, too. Our Safe & Caring Schools lesson will focus on how we care for each other.

Math: We will continue to work on geometry.  We will identify halves and fourths of a whole & solve problems involving equal shares.   We are sooooooooo smart! 

Social Living: Love is in the air!!!!!!!!  We will celebrate Saint Valentine's Day all week.  We will read lots of valentine stories and participate in valentine activities.
