Spelling City and Word Study

On Friday, we will be using the website Spelling City together as a whole class.  If your child would like to practice their spelling at home, they can click on the Spelling City link on the right side of our blog.  I have spelling lists already saved on the website.  You can click on the search button and then click teachers.  Enter my whole name (Lily Henault) and my name will pop up with Jericho Elementary School written next to it. We are working on Consonant-Vowel-Consonant (CVC) words right now.  Enjoy!

Star Student

Star Student of the Week
Each week there will be a new Star Student.  They will get to share about themselves, get a special seat at circle, and the class will write a special message for them.  There is some work that has to be done at home when you are the Star Student.  One of the jobs is to fill out the All About Me sheet that is attached.  It should be filled out by the student but with adult support.  This will be shared on Monday with a picture of the Star Student.  On Wednesday, they will share another picture of their choice.  This could be them with family members, friends, or doing something that is important to them.  The picture should share more about the student.  On Thursday, they may bring in an object to share.  This object should teach us more about the Star Student.  You may send in all of these things on Monday or bring them in on the assigned days.  Everything will be returned home on Friday.

Monday: Picture of Star Student and completed All About Me sheet
Wednesday: Picture that shares more about the Star Student
Thursday: Object that teaches more about the Star Student
*Please feel free to call or email with questions.*
This notice will be in your child's folder on Thursday with the All About Me sheet and the Star Student Schedule!
