Curriculum Overview

This month you will tell stories about shelters.  Have stories ready to tell or use a chapter book about shelter.  You will find many suggested books in Appendix A at the bottom of this unit.  You can continue using the Jakob Streit books as well since the Hebrew people in the books are searching for the Homeland.  If you finished ‘And There was Light’ last month, you could go on to ‘Journey to the Promised Land’.  The theme of shelters and the stories to match will be the backdrop for all skill building this month.  There will be practical work as well as a focus on literacy.  Your child will have opportunities to create diorama versions of each shelter; see the Appendix for a schedule and suggested materials.
 
This unit will allow for a thorough focus on building up the literacy skills already begun in first and second grade.  This year the focus is on the Syllable Phase of literacy.  You will find fun games and activities in the lesson plans and Appendix to support your child on this step by step literacy program.  The step by step approach helps assure you that all the pathways in the brain have been laid and your child is set up for success in the years to come.
