Well, we are getting down to the wire! only one week left before your children will be celebrating their year of hard work and summer vacation!!!! While ‘Summer Fever” has definitely hit, we are still learning lots here in the Keshet class! From Reading and Math to Parsha andTefillah, the children are still going strong.
Reading Groups continued as usual this week. As children continue to develop their decoding and comprehension the groups are changing. Skills focused on are as follows; main idea, details, chronological order, and identifying the problem and solution. There are also grammar skills that are worked on through reading these books Identifying nouns, adjective, verb, and pronouns, contractions and compound words. All of these skills are worked through in small groups through a variety of different activities. We also had a special visit from Miss ball who read us two books and asked us to compare their similarities. next week we will be hearing one more and entering the Maker Space for an activity!!!!
Spelling and Sight words are continuing to be reviewed in a variety of ways. Children have been practicing at home as well as with games in the classroom. In addition, Things 2 are continuing to develop some specific grammar skills that will help enhance their writing. Children in both groups are also continuing to work in their 100 Words book. This fun activity book uses basic sight words that children need to learn in a variety of fun ways. Word Math, Matching, Coloring, Mystery Letters, Rhyming, Sorting, etc. Another fun way to practice phonics skills was through Alphabet Ad-libs. This made for great practice
