Homework / Week at a Glance
Homework / Week at a Glance
(Sept. 26-30)
 
 
Tuesday Night – Pack library books to be sent back Wednesday. 
 
Literacy:
Word Wall Words:  We are still reviewing the grade 1 “No Excuse” spelling words.  This week’s new words are all, come, don’t, like, out, very, we
 
Word Family:  -all.  How many words can you think of that end with the –all sound.
 
Reading strategy: Back Up and Reread.  Good readers are always asking themselves “does what I am reading make sense?” If it is not making sense, we should back up and reread. We are also reviewing Stretchy Snake – stretch the sounds in unknown words.
 
Writing:  We are working on generating ideas to write about.  We are also learning about the writing process.  Good writers follow a process of thinking about a topic before they write. We are working on writing an introduction, followed by details related to the topic, and finally a conclusion. 
 
Math: We will be continuing our unit on patterns this week. We will be looking at increasing patterns.  You can support your child’s learning by having him/her create, extend, and copy patterns using various household materials.
 
Reminders/Important Dates:
Terry Fox Walk:  Royal Road School will participate in a school wide Terry Fox Walk on Thursday, September 29th.  Students will walk around the school starting at approximately 11:15 am.  All family members are invited to attend and walk around with the students.  We are encouraging all students to bring in $1 as a donation for this very important cause.  Money can be brought in to your child’s classroom teacher
