This week we will meet Mr. N who has a noisy nose. The children will practice writing the letter /N/, learn the sound of the letter and discover words that begin with the letter. We will continue to work in our Letter People book, rhyming book, alphabet dictionary, journal and Handwriting Without Tears. We will continue with Lexia (big shout out to those who worked on Lexia during our 3 week break)Planet Bravo games and Starfall.
Snowflakes! We will begin a special seasonal unit on snowflakes which includes a lot of cutting practice, recognizing the initials of our name, matching upper and lower case letters and a special Big Buddy activity focusing on how we are all unique, just like snowflakes.
We will begin our January math journals, and use games and manipulatives to reinforce math concepts such as number bonds. You might remember these as "fact families." We are continuing to work on number recognition up to 30 and eventually to 100.
