Greetings, Friends & Families!

Poem of the week

Colors Crackle, Colors Roar

Red shouts a loud, balloon-round sound.

Black crackles like noisy grackles.

Café clickety-clicks its wooden sticks.

Yellow sparks and sizzles, tzz-tzz.

White sings, Ay, her high, light note.

Verde rustles leaf secrets, swish swish.

Gris whis-whis-whispers its kitten whiskers.

Silver ting-ting-a-ling jingles.

Azul coo-coo-coos like pajaritos do.

Purple thunders and rum-rum-rumbles.

Oro blares, a brassy, brass tuba.

Orange growls its striped, rolled roar.

Colors Crackle. Colors Roar.

———- Pat Mora

What was Happening?

For this week, we decided to revisit the letter “H”. We finished coloring, tracing, finding & highlighting, sounding out, and matching all the worksheets of the letter “H”. We also worked on answering, “What book did we read?” and “Who was the story about?” questions. We read “The Wind Blew” book by “Pat Hutchins”. For “Core First Learning” series, we learned about the core words “I & Not”, and we read “Not From Here” book from that series. For math comprehension, we reviewed counting 1-10 by using different manipulatives, and listened to counting songs. We also started the topics of “Greater than”, “Less than”, &”Equal to”.

We had a beautiful time at the Gym, Art, & Music.
