Where Does It Go?

This week we are spotlighting the letter Mm. We are also working on position words such as before, after, above, below, on, over, under, beside, left, right, etc. It is important for your child to grasp these positions. You can play an easy game to practice by having your child place a toy "under the chair" or "on the chair" or "to the left of the chair."

Conferences Coming Soon!

Happy Columbus Day! I am sure you noticed the "pirate" hats we made today after learning about Christopher Columbus. This week we are spotlighting the letter Nn. We just finished sorting in math. Don't forget that next week will be our parent/teacher conferences. Look for the note coming home!

Popcorn Words

This week we are learning about oceans and focusing on the letter Aa. Please continue working on our popcorn words: I, am, the, a, little, have, is. These are some of the most common words that your child will read. It is important for them to be able to recognize them.

Apples, Apples, Everywhere

This week we are studying apples and will be making applesauce on Thursday! We are focusing on the letter Pp as well as finishing up our work on the numbers 0-10. An easy way to practice the letter P and its sound are to use popcorn. Simply make some popcorn and talk about how it pops or is popping.

T is for Transportation

This week we are focusing on the letter Tt which fits in great with our theme: transportation! Many types of vehicles start with T: trucks, trains, tanks, tanker trucks, transporters, etc. Focus on the T sound if you see one of these vehicles. We are continuing to study the numbers 0-10 and are beginning to focus on the number words.

This week we are studying different nursery rhymes. They provide lots of practice for your child. Our focus letter of the week is H which goes with Humpty Dumpty and Hickory Dickory Dock. We are still practicing counting which is found in One, Two Buckle My Shoe. Three of our four popcorn words (I, little, the) are found in Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star. Have fun this week revisiting nursery rhymes with your child!
