Weekly Newsletter 11

Dear Parents,

This week we started a new block (unit 1c), simple rhymes. The children learned to identify rhyming words by listening, reading and writing. Rhyming words are words that have the same ending sounds, like  (cat, fat, hat, rat), (sing, wing, thing, ring). The have also learnt to come up with sentences that have at least two rhyming words. The children have also learned to recognize and write the sound qu and recognize words with this sound.

Science:

In science, we have also started a new unit. We learned about materials and what most things are made of. We looked around the classroom and tried to identify what everything is made of. We learnt that some things are made from plastic, metal, wood, glass and fabric.

Note: Please check video on blog.

Homework:

Most of the children were absent today so I did not send out the homework. The homework will be given out on Sunday and will be returned on Wednesday.

I will be posting worksheets on the blog but note that those are only for home use, they’re not to be checked in school.

 

Thank you

Have a cozy weekend,

Miss Farida
