Homework: Read and math sheet
Math Homework: subtraction with two-digit numbers, no regrouping.
Literacy
We are looking at r-controlled vowel “or/ore”. The “r-controlled” vowel rule (bossy R) decides when a vowel is followed by ‘r’, the ‘r’ controls the vowel sound, usually creating /or/. Use -or for the /or/ sound at the beginning or middle of words (e.g., form, fork). Use -ore at the end of words (e.g., more, shore, store).
*** We are at the point in the year where word work and spelling rules are becoming more complex, and there is a lot for students to remember. This is why nightly reading is so important. These words frequently appear in the books students read, and the more exposure they have to them, the easier it becomes to recognize and decode them.
The following are the heart words we have covered so far this school year. Students should be able to read these words.

This week we will move on to adding two-digit numbers by regrouping/carrying a number.
EX:
It is important that students have a good grasp of their basic addition facts to 20 to have success with this concept. Students can use a number line in class to help but will need to use other strategies for assessment purposes.

Literacy :
We are looking at r-controlled vowel “ar”. This occurs when the letter ‘r’ follows ‘a’, causing the ‘a’ to produce a new, combined sound, often called the “bossy r” /är/ sound, as in car, star, and farm.

We will spend the week reviewing addition and subtraction of two-digit numbers (without regrouping) and finish the week with a quiz. Next week we will move on to regrouping and borrowing which can sometimes be a tricky concept for students.

Due to the short week last week, we will be looking at the same literacy words and Math concepts this week.
Literacy (same as last week):
We are looking at “le” at the end of a word. If the le word has a short vowel sound, the consonant before the le is doubled, e.g. giggle. If the le word has a long vowel sound, then the consonant before the le is single, e.g. table. Our main focus will be reading words with le at the end.
*** We are at the point in the year where word work and spelling rules are becoming more complex, and there is a lot for students to remember. This is why nightly reading is so important. These words frequently appear in the books students read, and the more exposure they have to them, the easier it becomes to recognize and decode them.

Math:
We will continue to work on addition and subtraction (multiples of 10) and look at numbers to 200. We will also review a number plus/minus 10 as we will be moving into two-digit addition and subtraction in April. This week we will also begin to learn adding two-digit numbers within 100 (without regrouping).
