Learning About Animals

Speech & Language:  This week we will be practicing the initial blend of /fr/.  We will make a frog and our snack of fruit salad will be provided by Balam.

Sharing:  This week the Tiggers will share.

I hope you all had an enjoyable three-day weekend.  This week we will meet Mr. O who teaches us about opposites.  How many opposites can your child think of?  We will be writing about animals in our Benchmark workbook as well as practicing letters and sounds.  We are learning about animals this month including ways they are alike and different.  We are also learning about animals in science.  We have had lessons about mammals and birds and will be learning about reptiles and amphibians too. The children are very enthusiastic about this topic!

In math we are continuing patterns, addition, subtraction and of course counting by 1s, 5s, 10s, 20s.  How high can your child count?  We are quickly approaching the 100th Day of School and will celebrate with a special day of fun math activities.  I will be sending more information and a sign up for those able to help us with out 100th day trail mix snack.

In P.E. we are working on balancing, throwing, catching and tumbling.  Be sure to have your child wear tennis shoes and socks, especially on P.E. day.

Our Schedule:
Tuesday:  Speech & Language, P.E.
Wednesday: Art, Yoga, Council
Thursday: P.E.
Friday: Morning Assembly, Planed Bravo, Homework Review, Sharing, Science

Thank you for all you do to support Room K!
