Ruhnke Review for 4/9/20
651-771-8494 aruhnke@stjeromeschool.org
We are Learning About:
Reading: Read 20 minutes daily. Keep filling in the April Reading Log each day, then at the end of April, you can turn it in to me. Thank you.
Phonics/Groves: Please make sure your child is watching the lesson videos of the “Rhyming” or “Groves.” Phonics. The children need to be “acting” (hand gestures) out what we do together & saying the things I tell them too. Also, doing the work in the workbook along with me.
Math: Continue using the math sheets I sent home on Monday, March 16th: Topics 1, 2, 3, & 6. We will begin Topic 14 after you come to pick up the next round of materials for your child on April 8th.
Writing: Your child should be writing one-two stories each week. They should only use pencil (even for the picture), and they should only be given at the most two minutes to draw the picture. Remind your child they should use a capital at the beginning of the sentence and there should be a period at the end of the sentence. Also, they should have a “finger space” between each word. Parents, you are NOT aloud to spell any words for them. They should “tap” out the word and “stretch” it out, then write the word as they hear the sounds. They know how to do this.
Religion: We will learn about ”Easter Sunday.”
Humanities: We will learn about “The Ten Commandments.”
Science: Please have your child watch one or two videos each week on the Scholastic site (below). Make sure your child is clicking on the comprehension questions, etc.
Star of the Day
You will have to tune-in each day to see who is the Star! That “person” (puppet) will help me with the morning calendar routine!
Memory/Sight Words
Memory/Sight words are words we find in every sentence we read. Students must know these words to be able to read a sentence. Students should memorize these words, NOT sound them out. Please practice these words every day, both reading them and spelling them.
