I hope everyone had a good day yesterday! This type of learning is new to all of us....parents, students and teachers. We just need to remember to take one day at a time and a lot of deep breaths! We can do this together!
Reading:
- Practice book pages 75 (adding -ed, -er and -est) & 76 (pick a word from box to finish each sentence). You will find these pages in "The Dot" reading section.
- Think about our "Annie Adjective" poster in the classroom that we were working with last week. Remember an adjective describes a noun. For example: green shirt, pretty flower
- Do adjectives for colors and shapes worksheet (2 sided) in "The Dot" packet.
- Read a book from home or Raz Kids for 30 minutes today. Keep up the great work reading....I can see that many of you were busy working on Raz Kids yesterday!! :)
Spelling:
- workbook page 78 (long e:ea). You will find these spelling pages separately. They are not with "The Dot" reading pages.
Writing Journal:
- Imagine you and a friend find a pot of gold during recess. What would you do? (Write in complete sentences on your next writing journal page in the packet that I gave you. Write at least 3 sentences and draw a picture.)
Math:
- Yesterday, you looked at nickels and pennies. Today, you are going to look at dimes and pennies. Dimes are worth 10 cents. So, pennies are 1 cent, nickels are 5 cents and dimes are 10 cents.
