Curriculum
Our topics of study for the month of October will be as follows:
Our students are once again working with the Superkids reading program. Our focus of study this month will be....
Reading: The children will discuss and understand fiction stories and informational texts. They will recognize genre, determine character motivation, cite text evidence, identify plot and understand story elements.
Phonics: The children will decode le and ng words. They will review long vowel pairs oo, ai, ea, ee, ie, and ui. They will review short and long vowel patterns CV, CVC and CVCe. They will also decode words ending in y.
Grammar: The children will understand and use contractions. They will understand and identify nouns and verbs, and understand adjectives ending in y.
Math: The children will be working with fact strategies for addition and subtraction. They will learn different ways to add numbers up to 18.
Science : The children will learn about Earth long ago. We will be studying fossils and finding out how scientists learn about them.
Social Studies: We will be studying landforms and bodies of water. The children will be developing their map skills, using a map key, colors, and symbols to read a physical map.
Religion: We are learning about the work of Jesus and the beginning of the Church. The children will discover more about the sacraments of Baptism and Confirmation and the ways we worship God.
