Four-Day Week

Reminder:  There is no school on Wednesday!

Speech & Language:  This week we will practice the sound of initial /G/.  We will make ghosts for our craft and our snack of grapes will be provided by Rosie.


Sharing:  This week the Winnie-The-Poohs will share.

This week we will meet Ms. F, who has funny feet.  We will practice writing /F/ and listen to the sound of the letter.  We will work on all of our language arts skills and our parent volunteers will play reading games with the children to reinforce the letter sounds and letter recognition.

We are working on fine motor skills, which are so important for printing.  We will use games that require fine motor coordination and of course our Handwriting Without Tears program focuses on this as well.

During math time we will focus on the concept of 7 and will practice printing the number correctly as well as coloring objects, again reinforcing fine motor skills.

We are using a variety of strategies to reinforce the concept of friendship, empathy and cooperation (Anti-Bullying).  Some of these are Second Step, Council, reading stories, Cosmic Kids Yoga, and our Conscious Discipline program.  We are emphasizing following the 3 Bs and to "be helpful, not hurtful."  I have many books about feelings and friendship.  Additionally, the public library has many books about this topic.  If you and your child have a favorite book about friendship, please feel free to be a guest reader, or send the book in so we can read it. 

Thank you to all of our wonderful parent volunteers.  I am amazed and so grateful for your involvement in our class.  The children love having you in Room K and so do Ms. Sammantha and I!
