May 25-29 Pgs: 277-284, focus on long vowel Ee (e says it’s name, as in feed)

 

 

Please have them use their blue writing journal 1-2 days this week. They can do Long Vowel Ee for 1 day, and they can do short vowel Ee for another day. For example when they’re doing Long Ee, have them open to a clean page in their journal. Have them write Long Ee at the top of the page and underline it. (You can look at previous pages for examples). Then have them generate a list of words that have Long Eein them. For vowels, especially the long vowels most of the time you will make a list with the vowel sound in the middle.  Depending on the word, they will most likely need your help to spell the words. After about 5-6 words, then have them make and write a sentence using some of the words from the word list they created.

 

Before they write the sentence please review the following:

1. Sentences start with a capital letter.

2. Use finger space in between each word to show one word is ending, and the next word is beginning. They can use a Cheerio, M&M, or popsicle stick to measure space between words.

3. Punctuation at the end of the sentence.

 

Examples of Long Vowel Ee words with the sound in the middle:

feet, bee, sheep

Examples of words that begin with Long Vowel Ee:

ear, eleven, eat

 

If you have made flash cards for the alphabet at home, it would be helpful to make the vowels a different color. All the vowels (Aa, Ee, Ii, Oo, Uu). So when reviewing from now on the kids will know that the vowel has two sounds.
