prepare for this timed test.

Remember to read aloud to your family every night.

These are some of the concepts that we will be studying at school.

Reading:  author, illustrator, characters (who's in the story), main 
idea (what the story's mostly about) and details, plot, comprehension, 
setting, and good expression when reading aloud.   We need to know  what's 
on the title page (author, illustrator, title).

Math:  Counting (by twos, fives, tens, forward and backward), 
adding-vertical addition, subtraction, word problems, 
adding on and number lines, greater than, less than and equal to, 
graphs, finding numbers that are one more than, one less than another 
number, telling time, counting money and reading a thermometer, place value 
(to 100), recognizing plane and solid shapes.  Know how many sides and 
vertices (corners) are on each shape.  Know if the solid shapes will 
stack, roll or slide.

Grammar:  Sentence structure, using a capital letter at the beginning of 
a sentence and a period, question mark or exclamation mark at the 
end, nouns and verbs, contractions, compound words, subject-verb 
agreement (he sees/we see), adjectives. 
 You may want to practice irregular plural nouns; for example, children is 
the plural of child, men for man, women for woman, feet for foot etc.  
Also, words that end in x, sh, s and ch must have -es added to the end 
to make them plural.

Or, would you like to view and optionally restore one of these previous versions?
