September 5th- 9th

Language Arts/Reading:

In Word Study this week we will begin Words Their Way.

This is a spelling, phonics and word study program designed to meet the needs of individual learners. We completed the assessment last week. We will begin learning the routines of our word study time and will complete a whole class sort. I will be sharing more about this program with you during Open House. 

In Writer’s Workshop we will focus on how to use our supplies independently and telling stories in our illustrations.  Last week in Reading Workshop we talked about what kinds of books we enjoy reading and identified our favorite book.  This week we will take those memories and learn how to sketch them and create new reading memories in our classroom. We will also create personal reading goals for first grade!
