LANGUAGE ARTS: This week we read and discussed Be a Hero! Work it Out! and Pepita and the Bully. Be a Hero! Work it Out! is an infographic. Infographics give information quickly and in a visual way using pictures, symbols, and words or phrases that stand out. Pepita and the Bully is a realistic fiction selection. We worked on skills such as decoding words with consonant digraphs /ph,/ /ch,/ /tch,/ /th,/ /sh,/ and /wh,/ identifying compound subjects and predicates in sentences, identifying coordinating conjunctions (words such as "and" & "or,") to form compound subjects, decoding words with the prefixes "re" and "un" as in reread and unfold, and learning ten new high-frequency words.
RECONCILIATION: Thank you for sending your child's First Reconciliation book to school on Monday. We discussed chapter 4 in class. Please complete chapter five and return the book to school on Monday, October 30. We will be discussing chapter five in class next week.
- Also, there is a parent/student session this Sunday, October 29 at 1:00 P.M. in the church basement for those who are making their First Reconciliation in December.
