- I want you to think about the goats that we have on our farm. In your journal (the black and white one that I gave you in class), write me a little story that uses the goats as characters!
- Remember my rule-- No stressing out aloud!
Handwriting -
- We worked on capital letters that we call "Frog Jump Capitals". This is because you have to pick up your pencil and "jump" back to the top during the letter. When working on these sheets, the point is not to simply complete them, but to start at the top and then jump back up to the top. Work on perfection!
- Here are some worksheets to work on this week to help review the Frog Jump! (No work in the workbook this week... just these sheets!)
Poetry
- Our first poem will be "The Caterpillar". They have a copy of the poem in their binders.
- Have students work on memorizing the poem over the next couple weeks!
History/Social Studies
- We began with map skills in class. At home, I have some sheets to help them work on the skills we learned in class.
Grammar
- We are working on learning about nouns. This week, talk about different nouns that fall into each category: person, place, thing, or idea. (Idea nouns = freedom, love, hope, hour, hunger... "things" you cannot touch!) We also talked about common and proper nouns. Point out proper and common nouns around the house/town. (examples-- common- store / proper- Kroger, common-cookie / proper- Oreo)
- Study the "noun" grammar card. (We will have more cards later- but for now, there is only one!)
- Fun Options for studying these:
