Letterland
Unit 17: More variant vowel teams:
/oo/, /ew/ and /-ue/
Examples of words with these sounds:

Please be sure to have your student focus on practicing the spelling patterns of these words, rather than memorizing.
Reading
We will begin our next Module in El. This module focuses on pollination. During the first unit students will be learning about plants and how they grow and survive.
Math
Students will learn strategies for mental math- adding 10 and 100 to a given number.
Science
We will begin our unit on weather. We will learn about patterns and factors that affect weather. Students will learn about how energy from the sun is a source of light that warms land, air and water. They will also learn about the tools scientists use for observing, recording and predicting weather.
