May 5 Tuesday

Good morning! I will see you later for Math.

Please email me by 10:00AM so I can take and submit attendance.

Let’s begin our day with prayer. Please continue the second decade of the Rosary. If you have Rosary beads you can use them.

If you have any special intentions please finish with the Glory Be to the Father. (This week is Nurses’ Appreciation Week. You may want to say a prayer for all the nurses and our own Nurse Nancy.)

Please say the Pledge of Allegiance.

PHONICS

*read word list on page 239

*box #2 circle all words with the ōa spelling and underline all words with the ōw spelling

Oral Segmentation

*say the following words, one at a time, to your child

*ask them to say each word sound by sound and count the number of letter sounds

        low (2),            oak (2),            own (2),           coat (3)

        road (3),          toads (4),        floats (5),       grows (4)

Page 243         Think and Write

*have your child say the names of each picture and write the spelling for each sound in a separate box (They can ask you ‘Which long ō spelling?’)

                1~s-n-ow 

                2~b-oa-t

                3~t-oa-s-t

(Remind them ōa is usually in the middle of a word, sometimes at the beginning, and ōw is usually at the end of a word.)

Listen and Spell

*have your child write each word and sentence

1  row

2  coat

3  roast

4  blow

5  Go slow on this road.

(remind them again that they may ask you ‘Which long ō spelling?’ and remind them ōa is usually in the middle of a word and ōw is usually at the end of a word)

***Please send me a picture of page 243.***

Page 244         Make New Words

*make new words with ōa or ōw spellings

(When we do this at school they have alphabet tiles or flashcards. You can also make a template on paper or a whiteboard with ōa and ōw and have your child add letters to make words. This time it is difficult because grown and moan rhyme but use different long ō spellings. You can suggest words families like:

                -oat,   -ow,   -oast     

             

If they make a mistake, explain it is tricky and help correct the mistake.)
