What We Have Been Working On:

· Language Arts: We have been focusing on beginning sounds. We also had three Alpha-friends help us with our letters, Sammy Seal, Mimi Mouse, and Reggie Rooster.
· Math: Number writing is what we have been working on the most, especially reversals. We have also learned about concepts such as temperature and graphing the weather.
· Science: We have learned about all four seasons and what each “looks like” outside. Katie Cantu also came to teach us about bats.
· Handwriting Without Tears: The class has been working on uppercase letters (B, R, N, M, H, K, L and U). Have them practice writing at home.
· Students are doing so much better following rules & directions and I am so proud of how far they’ve come since the beginning of the year! :)
