Unit 1 - Week 6
Phonics:
It's all about the letter M this week. Help your child recognize the /m/ sound by finding items around the house that begin with this sound. For example, /m/ for muffin, /m/ for meal, /m/ for mouse. This is a good time to point out rhyming words (i.e., mouse, house.)
In class we will be reading Julius (Look at the first link under the Reading Street Unit 1 Books for more info.
Please help your child match Uppercase and Lowercase letters A-Z. Searching through magazines and/or newspapers is a fun way to find upper and lower-case letters. If you want to send in some pics of M words, we could make a class alphabet book. Think creatively -- old M & M wrapper, picture of a monsoon from a world-wide weather report, old greeting card with the word Merry cut out, etc.
Peruse Reading Street Unit 1/Week 5 to view other skills we are working on this week.
