• Tons of fun this week with The Gingerbread Man “Run, run as fast as you can, you can’t catch me, I’m the gingerbread man!”  Though not strictly a holiday story, it is the perfect story for a delicious season.  Something about the smell of gingerbread is irresistible.  While it seems easy to side with the Gingerbread Man and not the sly fox that eats him, we quickly discovered that none of us could resist eating the delicious Gingerbread

Peek at the Week

• This week was full of November fun.  Our story was, Five Little Turkeys from Hands on Holiday Reading.  This story is obviously a Thanksgiving story. The children love to use the big button to yell out the repeater line, “and they said ‘Hooray!” The story focuses on vocabulary and counting.
• Our letter of the week was “Jj” We ate jelly beans, jelly and squeezed our own orange juice to drink.
• We practiced the letter “J” by reading an interactive book and searching in our mystery box for things  that start with the letter “J,”  and sang letter “J” songs

• We worked on comprehension skills by answering who, what, where questions
