Getting Outdoors For Our Week of 12/20-12/23

Although this was a short week we packed it full of fun.  Your student brought home a few handmade gifts for your family.  They worked hard and are so proud of their work.

When we return from our break we will:

• Add more glued sounds and blends to our phonics skills

• Build stamina in our reading to self time (best way to become a better reader!)

• Learn to count larger quantities

• Work on skip counting 2’s, 5’s, and 10’s  on and off the decade
