Home Learning May 4th-8th

I am really missing all of my students and I hope everyone is doing well!

Let me know if you have any questions or concerns at natalie.corcoran@nbed.nb.ca.

Speaking and Listening

Choose from the following:

Listen to a story on https://www.storylineonline.net or have an adult read a book to you. Tell someone about the main characters.

* Practice reciting Nursery Rhymes like ‘Itsy Bitsy Spider’ and ‘Jack and Jill’. What are the rhyming words you hear?

*Name 3 things that rhyme with cat. Name 3 things that rhyme with dog.

Alphabet

Find objects in your house that begin with the letters h, k, n and p. Write or draw a picture of some things you find.

Review your letters and sounds by playing these songs:

Sight Words

Review your A - C Level sight words:

I, a, am, at, can, go, is, like, me, see, the,

to, dad, he, in, it, look, mom, my, on, up, we,

and, are, come, for, got, here, not, play, said, you.

Review these sight words with these videos:

Level B: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4O5aHNnQLgE

Level C: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDBKwChlunQ

If your child knows the A-C sight words here are the D-F sight words:

day, down, into, looking, she, they, went, where, will, your, all, away, back, big, her, over, this, want, who, with, came, have, help, next, now, one, some, then, was, what.

Level E: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_893KdHDbB0

Level F: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUhczekj93Y

If your child is having trouble with any of the sight words they can build the word with playdoh, rainbow write it (print the word tracing it in many different colored crayons), print them in the driveway with chalk or cut the letters out and practice building the word and mess it up and build it again.

=============================================================

Reading

*Read a book in a quiet voice. Then, read a book in a loud voice.

*Continue using Kids A-Z. Be sure to have your child “read” the books, and not just “listen” to the books. They will only gain points and incentives when they read them. Each student has been assigned some books, however, please feel free to let your child choose their own books.

Login Instructions:

Step 1: Go to www.kidsa-z.com (there is also an app available)

Step 2: Enter or choose the teacher's username, NatalieCorcoran

Step 3: Your child finds his or her username on the class chart.

Step 4: Your child enters his or her password.

Our class is the “rabbit” symbol.

Writing

* Draw a picture of your family. Label your picture using one word to describe each family member.

* What do you look like? Use a mirror to draw and label yourself!

*Remember to use your sight word list to help you spell your sight words accurately. Continue to sound out unfamiliar words slowly so that you can record the sounds that you hear. Please leave a finger space between each word.
