Math
This week in math, we
will begin our unit on
Comparing Objects.
This week we will be
comparing objects
using longer/ shorter,
taller/ shorter. Have
your child
share what
they learn
each day!
This week in reading, we will
be working on identifying key
ideas and details in texts. We
will also be working on finding
the characters and the
setting. This is something you
can practice with them when
you read books
from the red
book bags!

words with your child:

Raise a Reader
We have been rotating bags
of books each week for
you to read with your child.
If you were able to watch
the DVD, this was a great
resource to learn how to
read in new ways with your
child. Please help your child
remember to
turn in the
book bag
every Friday.
