When we return from Thanksgiving Break we will start our 2 week unit based around The Gingerbreadman. We will be comparing and contrasting several different versions of The Gingerbreadman as well as writing our own books. Within this unit we will also start our big geography project where the students decorate a Gingerbreadman and mail it to a friend or family member in a different state. Be on the look out for that information this coming week! In Math, we will continue with Topic 6, Understanding Addition. In Writing, we will continue to work on stretching out words and writing the sounds we hear with appropriate spacing. We will also be focusing on word choice and descriptive writing this week. On Friday we will have our first “spelling test” over our 4 popcorn words this week. I do not want the word “test” to make anyone nervous as this is not a test that will be reflected on the students’ report card. It is simply a way for you and me to check in with your student to see if they are learning our sight words and learning to apply them in a sentence. It’s more of a “sight word check in” than a “test.” Our 4 popcorn words this week are: have, can, you, me. Please help your child read, write, and spell these words at home.
