Mrs. Leuthauser's Lemurs

Phonics:  

We worked on blending and sounding out words. (CVC) Ex: tub, bag, vet Reading:

We are learning to use our powers to read. Changing our voice to match characters, stretching out tricky words, and making our sounds match the letters we see. We are working on our reading powers: sound power, pointer power, picture power, and listening power. Read to Self: We read books and then drew our favorite part from the story. We focused on sounding out words, using our powers, and focusing on WOW pictures. Seat Work: CVC Words: Look at the picture card, match the word card, write the word and draw the pic. Listening: Listened to stories. Teacher Table: We read leveled books: worked on word building. Word Work: Sight Words: Read a magazine and find our SW, write them 3x's. * Math: We reviewed addition and 2D/3D Shapes. Next week we will begin #'s 11-20.

You can make a Valentine's box if you choose to, but you don't have to. You can simply bring in a bag. The kids at the end of the day will be able to pass out Valentine's. I ask that you only write your child's name on the from line.  
Ex: To:  (Leave blank)  
      From: (your child's name)  
      To:
      From: Desi
That way they are able to walk around the room and drop a card in everyone's box and bag. I hope this helps and if you have any other questions just let me know.
