Hello Ms. F!

Speech & Language:  Sound of initial /g/, we will make ghosts, our snack of grapes will be provided by Pauline.

Sharing:  Piglets

Meet Ms. F and her funny feet!  You can listen to her song here.  We will learn the sound and practice writing the letter Ff as well as work on rhyming, journals, our picture-dictionary and listening center, along with other fun reading activities.

Have you looked through your child's September Math Journal?  Each month we complete a math journal with a variety of activities that address the Common Core math standards.  The journal activities are a part of our math program that includes many hands on activities.

It was a pleasure to see so many of you at the Pancake Breakfast!  The food was delicious and the music was great.  It was nice to have the opportunity to spend time chatting and seeing the children.

This week we are going to start easel painting.  If art is your passion and you would like to oversee this activity, please let me know!  We will be painting on our two new easels beginning tomorrow.  I would like to have this be a weekly or bi-weekly activity!
