 Reilly doing her math! Way to go!

 

 

 

Due to the timeframe in which homeschooling is lasting, we are asking that reading, math and writing be "essential" assignments. They should be completed, yet if are completed past the "due date" (as always) that is absolutely acceptable. 

 

 

 

All other assignments (social studies, science, character ed.) are considered, "extension" activities. 

 

 

 

If you are able to complete all assignments, "essential" and "extension". 

 

Please continue to do so.

 

Fundations Letter Sounds:

Fundations: drink, plum, stink, shake, pale, cube, cute, quail (quale), creep (crepe), grape

 

Sentence: How will you get away?

 

High Frequency Words: an, funny, were, three

 

  • Review the new words and ask them to read them. 

  • Have your child read the poem and locate the words in the poem



The Three Little Boys

 

There were three little boys,

 

acting kind of funny.

 

They laughed in the rain,

 

and cried when it was sunny.

 

They wore mittens in the heat,

 

and flip flops in the cold.

 

They liked to fry their ice cream,

 

and eat their bread with mold.

 

 

 

Past words (please continue to review these daily):

 

a, at, are, am, all, and, as, big, be, but, can, come, down, do, for, go, he, his, her, him, have, had, it, is, I, in, look, like, my, me, no, not, on, of, one, out, see, said, she, some, the, two, they, that, this, two, there, up, we, will, was, with, what, you, yes, your, them, many,from, each, get, where, help, these, those, or, more, make, how, when, than,too, little, so, has, now, then, away, who, ours, us

 

  

 

Ways to review words (try to choose words to review that your child needs support with): 

 

-Rainbow write them! Write the words three times! Each time in a different color.

 

-Fill a baking sheet with salt, flour, etc. have your child trace their words in the baking sheet

 

-Have them write the words in chalk outside (on a nice day!)

 

-Use magnetic letters or stamps to spell the words for fun
