2. ELA Parent Page to Help Prepare for Week 9 (Extension)
Dear Family Member:
This week our class will explore how the animal characters in a story can change the expected outcome of the story. Students will discuss why these kinds of books can be interesting to read.
Here are some activities you can do with your child to help reinforce the skills we’ll be practicing.
Word Workout
Words to Know: antonyms Your child will define each word, and then you will help him or her think of an antonym—a word with an opposite meaning of the word.
Spelling/Phonics: digraphs: th, ch, tch, dge, sh, wh, ng, ph In this activity you will spell the words on the list, but you will spell some of them incorrectly. Your child will stop you when you have misspelled a word, and then he or she will give the correct spelling.
Comprehension: theme
Your child will select a favorite book and describe its theme or themes. Then your child will write a short letter to a friend that explains why this friend should read the book. The letter will include information about the theme.
