2nd Grade Math
Next week we will complete our 2nd chapter on double digit subtraction. This was a difficult chapter for most but my students tried their best. Keep working with flash cards at home!
1st Grade Reading
We have been working in Unit 4 of the Wilson Fundations program. In this unit we are working with the ff, ss, ll bonus letter rule. At the end of a one syllable word, if the word has one vowel immediately followed by an f, l or s at the end, double that consonant. The extra f, l, s is considered a bonus letter because it is extra. It does not make a sound.
Examples: hill, miss, puff
2nd Grade Reading
This week we completed Unit 5 of our Wilson Fundations program. Our next Unit will review a syllable type learned in Level 1, the vowel-consonant-e syllable (or magic e)
Examples: cape, home, pine
We will also work on reading and spelling procedures for two-syllable words with both closed and vowel-consonant-e syllables.
Examples: invite, reptile, baseball, lifetime
