We start our Thursdays off with our morning meeting! Spring is here and we are finally starting to see it with our weather 🙂 After our morning meeting we have gym. Try and get the kids moving today. The weather forecast is beautiful this morning and should continue throughout the day, So get OUTSIDE!!
Everyday we work on making choices. Offering your child choices throughout the day is a great way to work on their communication skills. When a child has choices they feel like they have control over a situation and also feel like they are in charge. Start small by offering your child two choices in different ways throughout the day. Some simple ways you can work on this at home include:
- Offer two snack options
- Show your child two different books and have them choose which one they’d like you to read
- Show your child two different toys and have them choose which one they’d like to play with
- Offer different cups to drink out of
- Show them two shirts and let them pick which one to wear
Ms. Dawn our lovely speech and language pathologist has added some awesome videos on her blog! Check them out at iblog.
After lunch we would work on Science or Math. Try and continue working on your work packet that contains lots of fun Science and Math resources!
To finish off our day we Mrs. Caitlin would come in to our class and work on our letter of the week. She posted these on her blog to share with us all!
Typically at school we focus on a letter each week; we sing songs, do an art craft, talk about what sound the letter makes and discuss what starts with the letter. Last week we would have discussed letter ‘S’ this week would be the letter ‘T’ and next week would be letter ‘U.’ Here are some songs to go along with ‘S’ ‘T’ and ‘U’ …can you find items around your house that begin with these letters?Â
