Hello Dear Families!
I hope that everyone had a restful Thanksgiving break and enjoyed the long weekend. As you know the days are flying by us quickly while we attempt to accomplish many different tasks here at school. Please continue working with your child at home on their names, letters. shapes, colors, numbers, independence and self-help skills. The kiddos are showing tremendous growth!
What We Are Learning…
Names-
We are learning to recognize the letters in our name and the order the letters go in. Please practice on 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 begin 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.
Oo- Ozzy Octopus
Qq- Queenie Queen
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
Shapes-
We have started learning 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.
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! We love to be outside and explore when the weather permits!
Please continue to check the blog and your calendar for upcoming dates and events.
