What's in the Forsman Future?

Spelling
We will be pretesting List #7 on Monday and assigning the homework for the week. My students will have a packet to complete and turn in on Friday. The cursive sheet has been looking great! We will also test on Friday!


Note for my reading class... we have started "Dinner Plate Words". These are third grade words that we write on a plate each week. Please try to use these words with your student or talk about them at home during dinner! If you do sometime in the week (or everyday if you are ambitious) please sign the plate so that your student can bring it in on Friday for a bonus ticket! This is a great way to increase their vocabulary!


Reading
We will continue to work on inferencing as we read good fit books. We will work on word, setting, and character inferences.


Reading RTI
My Tier 3 RTI group continuing to work on the five areas of reading: fluency, phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, and comprehension. I have noticed great improvements already from our short time together. I cannot wait to see these gains increase!


Math
We are starting chapter 2 next week. This chapter will focus on ordering and comparing numbers.


Math RTI
The math RTI group will be splitting into two smaller groups for a better student to teacher ratio. Some students will be working with Mrs. Kelly and some will continue to work with me. We will both continue to preview math concepts as well as review concepts that the students may need extra intervention with.


English
This week's prompt: Tomorrow is Saturday. Explain what you like most and least about Saturdays... Try to elaborate and add exciting details to your response. Make it into a paragraph and think of 6 sentences to support your topic sentence. You could even make this into a creative story!

Tune in next Friday for more Forsman Fun!
