Mrs. Dudley’s Classroom News End of the 2nd Quarter Can you believe we are wrapping up our 2nd 9 weeks? In preparation for doing this, it is very important that your child is here every day and on time. We have a lot to cover and a lot to assess, so their attendance is important. Below you will find some specific areas to be focusing on/practicing at home.
Language Arts
Can your child sound out words to write on their own?
Can they identify rhyming words?
Are they able to tell you the beginning sound of a word?
Do they remember to make the 1st letter in their sentence a capital?
Do they know all their popcorn words (by sight and writing them)?
Do they know all their letters and the sounds they make?
Math
Can your child count to 100?
Are they able to write their numbers from 0-20?
Do they know what number comes before and after a given number (i.e. __ 15__)?
Can they extend and create patterns using numbers and shapes?
