What's Happening This Week:
Hello First Grade Families! π We are thrilled to share all the exciting activities and learning adventures happening in our classroom. Let's dive into what's coming up next week and how you can support your child's learning journey at home.
π Next Week's Learning Adventures π
Phonics Fun: This week, weβll begin reading and writing words with consonant blends. These are words where two consonants come together to make a unique sound. You can practice words like these at home: block, clock, flock, glue, play, sled. πβ¨
Reading Time: In Unit Two, βMany Kinds of Characters,β we will continue to focus on fiction books. When reading with your child at night, ask the following questions: Who are the characters, what is the setting, and what happened at the beginning, middle, and end of the book? This will help deepen their understanding and make reading time even more enjoyable! ππ«
π Things to Remember π
Practice Makes Perfect: Encourage your child to practice reading and writing words with consonant blends at home. This will reinforce what we are learning in class and boost their confidence.
Engage in Reading: Make reading a fun and interactive activity by discussing the characters, settings, and plot of the books you read together. This not only enhances comprehension but also makes reading a delightful experience for both of you.
π Until Next Time! π
Thank you for your continued support and involvement in your child's education. Together, we can make this a fantastic and fruitful month of learning. Keep up the great work, and let's make September a month to remember! πβ¨
