This week we will be writing letters K, L, M, N, O, P. This week's nursery rhymes will include Twinkle, Twinkle, Three Little Kittens, Mary had a little lamb, and Hickory, Dickory, Dock. Rhyming can be difficult for some children so please play games at home that encourage rhyming words. For example, ask your child, "What rhymes with can?" You can also ask, "Does can rhyme with car?" We will assess both types of rhyming with the students this trimester.
We will continue to focus on counting, identifying, and writing numbers 1-10. We also begin our study of shapes. We will be working with and identifying circles, spheres, squares, rectangles, triangles, pyramids, and diamonds. The kids are getting so much better at writing their names. Please continue practicing at home. Also, keep working on those letter flashcards. I will begin retesting the kids at the end of September to see what letters they have mastered. Finally, almost all of the kids can enter their picture passwords to play ST Math. Give it a try at home. I will be sending home their usernames for Lexia in the next couple of weeks after I introduce the program to them here at school. We started playing last week and they are very excited about it. The first PTA meeting of the year is today at 6:00. We hope you can make it! Tomorrow, Wednesday, is Coffee Talk. This is an opportunity to hear what is going on at school from the principal. All parents are invited to attend. Comments are closed.
