Dear Family Member,

Today our class started the second unit for the Core Knowledge Language Arts program. The reader for this unit is called Gran. Your child will bring home stories you can read together about the adventurous Gran and her grandchildren, Josh and Jen. Remember that reading at home with your child is important for his or her success as a reader. In addition, your child today has been taught to read words with the double–letter spelling ‘ee’, as in feet . To practice this new spelling, ask your child to cut out the word cards below. In addition to words with the ‘ee’ spelling, some of the words below are Tricky Words; Tricky Words are underlined because they are words that do not play by the sound rules. Have your child read all of the words aloud, and arrange the cards to make phrases such as “the eel,” “three sheep,” “long speech,” etc. You may also ask your child to copy the phrases onto a sheet of paper. Please keep the cards for future  practice.

Dear Family Member,

Your child read this story in class earlier this week. Please ask your child to read the story aloud to you. Remind him that the underlined parts of words signal that this part is tricky and does not follow the sound rules he has learned. Also remind him that the bolded ‘ee’ signals that these letters are sounded as /ee/, as in the word feet .

Gran’s Trips “When will Gran get here?” Josh asks. Jen shrugs. Just then, Josh and Jen see a cab on the stree t. “Gran is here!” Jen yells. When Gran steps from the cab, Josh and Jen run up to get a hug. “Was the trip fun?” Josh asks. “Which one?” Gran asks. “I went on three trips!” “Where to?” asks Josh. “One was to the Swiss Alps,” says Gran. “In the Alps, there were stee p cliffs. I went up to the top of one cliff, but it was slick. I fell and had to cling to the rocks!” “No!” says Jen. “Yes!” says Gran. “Here is a snap shot.” Unit 2 © 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation

“What was the next trip?” Josh asks. “I went to Hong Kong,” says Gran. “What is in Hong Kong?” “Lots of stuff,” says Gran. “In Hong Kong I met a man who sings and has wings on his back.” “No!” says Josh. “Yes!” says Gran. “Here is a snap shot.”

“What was the last trip?” asks Jen. “I went to the gulf to swim with the ee ls and f ee d the fish,” says Gran. “No!” says Jen. “Yes!” says Gran. “Here is a snap shot.” “Which trip was the best?” Josh asks. “This one!” Gran says. “The one where I get to see Josh and Jen!”

Dear Family Member,

Your child has been taught to read the Tricky Words he , she , me , they , and their . In addition, your child has learned to read words with the separated digraph ‘a_e’, as in bake . Tricky Words are hard to read because they contain parts that are not pronounced the way one would expect. Words with separated digraph ‘a_e’ can be challenging to read because the reader has to recognize that the letters ‘a’ and ‘e’ are separated by a consonant, but they still work together to make a vowel sound. Have your child first read the Tricky Words in the box and then the sentences below. She will need to figure out which Tricky Word makes sense in each sentence. Note that the tricky parts are underlined in gray. Then have her write the correct Tricky Word for each sentence on the line.

Dear Family Member,

This is a story your child has probably read at least once, possibly several times, at school. Encourage your child to read the story to you and then talk about it together. Note that tricky parts in Tricky Words are underlined in gray.

Wong From Hong Kong

Jen yells, “Gran, there is a man here with a big cra te.” Gran says, “It must be Wong!” “Who?” asks Jen. “The pet I got in Hong Kong,” says Gran. “Wong from Hong Kong?” asks Jen. “Yep!” says Gran. “But what is this Wong?” asks Josh. Gran ta kes the lid off the crate and lifts up a long, black sna ke.

“Swee t!” says Josh. “Wong is a sna ke!” “ Ee k!” Jen yells. “I am sca red of sn a kes!” Gran says, “Wong is a saf e sna ke. There are sna kes that can kill us, but Wong is not one of them. This is a sn a ke we can pet.” Unit 2 © 2013 Core Knowledge Foundation

Saved By The Bells

Josh, Jen, and Gran h i ke off to the camp site with Sam the mu l e. “I will mee t you there!” Tex yells.

When they get to the camp site, Josh hangs Sam’s ro pe on a tree . The camp site is close to a ca ve. Gran and the kids p ee k in the cave. Drip. Drip. The cave is damp and dim. No sun sh i nes in the cave.

Josh, Jen, and Gran hike deep in the cave. They get lost. They are a bit scared, but just then Sam’s bells ring. Sam’s bells help them get back to the camp site. When they get back, Jen hugs the mule and says, “Sam, you and your bells saved us!”
