We Know All 26 Letters!
This week we are spotlighting our final letter, Q. We learned today that Q and U are stuck like glue. You can practice this concept by having your child spell words with these letters in them: queen, quit, quilt, quiet. We have begun learning subtraction and are learning about Coast Guard rescue swimmers. You may hear the words Mayday! Mayday! around your house!

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!
This week we are celebrating Dr. Seuss' birthday. We will be dressing up each day so look for pictures next week! We are focusing on the letter x, like the book Fox in Socks. We are finishing up learning the numbers 11-20 and different ways to count. Your child can count by 1's, 5's, and 10's to 100. Have them show you this at home!

J is for the Journey
We have come so far this year! We are spotlighting the letter J this week and only have 3 more letters to go. We are working on the teen number family in math. Please practice these numbers at home with your child. You can use beans or pasta to have your child count out certain numbers, like twelve or sixteen. It is also important to ask your child how to write the number they just counted.

V for Valentine's Day
In perfect timing, we are spotlighting the letter V this week. An easy way to reinforce this sound at home is to practice it while you make out Valentine's Day cards. Have your child read you the word "valentine" every time you see it. We are finishing up addition and moving on to numbers 11-20 this week. Check back later in the week for photos from our Valentine's Day party!
