Letter Gg bag!
Today we talked about the letter Gg and its /g/ sound, like in gorilla, goat, gum etc. Please find 3-5 items at home that start with the g sound and put them in this bag for your child to share in class tomorrow (Tuesday, October 10th). Thank you!
(Green Letter–Kindergarten Reading at Home Plan)
Your child has a Read at Home Plan that will be part of their homework routine each day. Please read/listen to your child read for 15 minutes everyday. Please use the graph on the back of this letter to help your child color the number of books read each night. There will be a special reward for the child with the most books read at the end of the week. I will check this graph numerous times throughout the week. This is an expectation that will continue throughout the rest of the school year!
2. Reading Bag-Reading bag, work on name puzzle, ABC chart (identifying letters and sounds–try out of order!), each child has 5 NEWbooks to practice “reading the pictures” (you can read the words for the to practice listening to reading). MANY students also have gotten a black and white paper book from their READING teacher… practice pointing to each word and READING THE WORDS in this book. **Please note there is a $6.00/ book charge for any lost school book— please be responsible and help take care of our books!!!*** students have a “plastic” paper with their name on it to practice writing their name… wipe off with tissue and practice everyday— on the last line, they NEED to try ALL BY THEMSELVES!– practice NEW sight word “to T-O-to!!!” USE THE ARM TAP TECHNIQUE!
3. Math Bag- using number chart to practice counting and number recognition, use counting cubes to work on one-to-one with counting.
Reminders:
****Please send in a class snack. (enough for 18 please)*** We are almost out!!! We ask that at the beginning of each month- you send in a snack to share— THANK YOU!!
