Hello Jaguar Parents!

This week we covered,

What we did this week was:

Reading
We read "What bug is it" which was their first introduction to more scientific reading.

Phonics
We went over ll sound with the combination of different vowel sounds.

ESL book
We started our next unit on Learning. We started discussing what is learning and how we can learn faster. This was a more difficult chapter, since the concept is more abstract, but the students are continuing through with stride.

Yo-Yo
Did great with class assignment but this week he had a few behavioral backlashes. I talked to him on Thursday, and will be making sure he continues to improve!

Andrew
Had difficulty with some of the questions on how we learn outside of the school but we will be continuing next week and I will be sure to go over last weeks material with him.

Irene did a lot better this week. She was eager to read out loud and did most of her written perfectly.

Gwen had some trouble with the reading we started this week. We will be going over more of the new vocabulary next week which I believe will help.

Hanna was struggling with some of the writing for the reading comprehension. This is good because before, she was just breezing through most of the material. Now that she has a challenge, I feel she will be pushing harder in order to reach the next threshold in her learning!

Timmy like other students had a bit of a hard time doing some of the reading. We will be reviewing the story again tomorrow to make sure everyone is caught up.

Tony did well with understanding the story, which is good since it was quite difficult. The only thing was he again persisted for help on many of the written questions, when in fact he already knew the answers.

Julia understood the phonics quickly and did a fantastic job breaking down the new vocab words. She pronounced every new word exceptionally well!

Leo was one of the few that excelled in reading the new story this week. His reading skills are really coming along well!

Devon is paying better attention to reading and participating a lot more!

Well hope everyone has a great weekend.
