This week in reading we worked on rhyming, onset fluency, blending and identifying final and medial sounds. On Monday we worked on a writing assignment about Snow. Lastly we continued to review our vowel sounds. Many of the children are struggling with this.
Math
This week we have been working on Chapter 6. This chapter focuses on using subtraction strategies to 12. In this chapter, the students use the strategy of counting back to find the difference. My students have also been using the number line to count back.

This week in Reading we have been working on daily journaling. The children are making great progress with this. In our Wilson Reading program we have been working on: vowel-consonant-e syllable words, long vowel sounds, and reading V-E words with suffixes.

We have been working on Chapter 7 with double digit subtraction. The children are now able to subtract double digits and regroup when necessary. We will also use our skill of subtracting double digit numbers to problem solve. Please continue to practice subtraction facts with your child.
