 Week of Good Choices

 

✏️ Handwriting
We are continuing to practice a good pencil grip, good sitting posture, and forming letters from the top and at our starting corner. Students learned uppercase  N and M  using big lines down, big lines sliding down, big lines sliding up, and “frog jumps.” We will review the Frog Jump Capitals: F, E, D, P, B, R, N, M.

🔢 Math

In Lesson 5, students compared groups of objects and numbers up to 5 and recognized that each counting number is one more than the last number. Key words used: more, less or same.

📖 Sight Words
This week’s new words are see, are & can.

Previously introduced words: and, a, is, I, me, the, you, we.

Please practice reading the words in your child’s composition book each night. Students should recognize these words; they do not need to spell them.
