What We Are Learning
Reading:
Metacognition: this is just a fancy
way to say that good readers comprehend. Ask your child what this word means
and for them to sing the metacognition song.
Skippy Frog reading strategy (skip
the tricky word and then come back).
Word Work:
Popcorn Words: his, be, at, they,
& this
Digraph: “wh”
Word Family: _ap
Writing:
Writing small moment/true stories
Using correct uppercase and lowercase
letters
Using speech bubbles in our illustrations
Math:
Identifying common 2D shapes (circle,
triangle, square, rectangle, trapezoid, & hexagon)
Attributes of 2D shapes (sides and
corners)
Theme:
Scientists ask questions and research
to find answers
Asking questions about apples
Tiger Pride Assembly
On September 30th, we will have our
first Tiger Pride Assembly. This year we
will celebrate student achievement a little bit differently than last year.
Instead of apples, I will give away PAWS to students who show PAWS behavior (P:
Pay Attention, A: Act Positively, W: Work Hard, & S: Show Self-Control). I
will send a secret note to you if your kiddo will be recognized. Come and enjoy
the fun!
Fall Wonder Table
I sent home a letter two weeks ago requesting
fall items to place on our Wonder Table.
These can be pumpkins, gourds, fall leaves, etc. These items will help
us learn about observing, asking questions, and investigating answers.

September 30th: Tiger Pride Assembly 2:30
October 9th: Fall Party and Half Day for
