Week of December 9- 13

Hello Families!

Time has been flying by very quickly!  We have this week and one more week before Winter Break begins!  Please make sure you pay attention to the calendar, iblog and Remind updates about events that will be taking place before the holiday.

What We Are Learning…

Names-
We are learning to recognize the letters in our name and the order the letters go in. Please continue to practice recognizing the letters in your child’s name and the order in which they go (Rajaa- R-a-j-a-a). If your child knows the letters in their name and the order they go in, please continue working on writing their name. The first letter in their name is the only letter to be a capital, all the rest are lowercase (Rajaa).

Letters-
As our letter journey continues, we will learn 2 more letters this week. Students will learn to identify the letters, the sound, recognize the letter in print and write the letter on their own. Please make sure you are checking the blog for updates so you can help work with your child at home. Don’t forget to practice previously learned letters.

Gg- Gertie Goose

Ss- Sammy Seal

Please review letters- Ll- Larry Lion, Ff- Fifi Fish, Ee- Edna Elephant, Hh- Hattie Horse, Tt- Tiggy Tiger, Ii- Iggy Iguana, Uu- Umbie Umbrella, Cc- Callie Cat, Oo- Ozzie Octopus, Qq- Queenie Queen

Shapes-

We are continuing to learn shapes!  Please talk with your child about what makes up each shape (sides, corners) and talk about how shapes can come in different sizes and still be the same shape.

Oval (no sides/ no corners)

Pentagon (5 sides)

Circle (no sides/ no corners), Square (4 equal sides/ 4 corners), Triangle (3 sides/ 3 corners), Rectangle (4 sides- 2 long, 2 short/ 4 corners)

Reminders-

Please make sure you continue to dress your child for the weather!  It has been quite cold when we are outside so make sure your child has a heavy jacket, hat, gloves/ mittens and a scarf.  Please remind your child to place gloves inside their hat and the hat in their sleeve when at school.  This helps to avoid losing our winter gear.  We love to be outside and explore when the weather permits!

This is an extremely busy month so please continue to check the blog, your calendar and Remind for upcoming dates and events.
