Agenda for the week

Reading/writing  We worked on the letter Bb. We are learning to identify the upper and lowercase letter and make the sound of Bb.  . Please continue helping your child write their first and last name at home.  We began writer’s workshop and are learning how to draw a picture and label it or write about it. Students should be practicing identifying the letters of the alphabet. Students should be able to make the sound of each letter.  I will be testing the students weekly to see how many letters they can identify.  In order for your child to be ready for kindergarten they must be able to identify all capital and lowercase letters and make the sound of every letter.  Please have your child work on reading eggs at least 3 days a week. We did a R.A.N strategy. R.A.N stands for reading and analyzing nonfiction.  We read nonfiction stories about spiders and picked out key facts about spiders.  We wrote an interesting fact and labeled the parts of a spider.  DONT FORGET TO DO READING EGGS AT HOME 3 DAYS A WEEK.

Math   We continue to work on shapes and numbers 0-5. Your student should be able to identify the number and show me how many for each number 0-5. Please  have your child work on Math Seeds 3 days a week.

Social  Studies  We are learning about how to be a good citizen.  We are learning to share and take our turn. We are working on classroom routines and cafeteria behavior.

Science  We learned about spiders and watched videos on how they spin a web. Next we will be learning about pumpkins and push and pull.

Folders

Please make sure to empty the green folders each night! It is very difficult and time consuming to locate homework or important notes when the folder is full of papers from the day before. Remember to initial the communication log and feel free to add any notes to me!

Snack   Please remember to send only health snacks like fruit, vegetables, and cheese and crackers.
