Language Arts: We have been focusing on beginning sounds, blending, and segmenting words. We have also learned 7 sight words already (color words and the words “I” and “see”).
Reading: We read many stories about colors this month. Students have had fun learning all the color words.
Math: Students have been working hard on recognizing numbers 0-20. The “tricky teens” are hard to remember because students have a tough time figuring out what digit comes first. In Math, we’ve also worked on symmetry!
Science: We have had fun talking about Fall and all the changes that come about. We also learned about bats from Miss Chrissy from Jasper County Conservation.
Handwriting Without Tears: The class has been working on uppercase letters (B, R, N, M).
Please wash your child’s rest towel and remember to bring it back to school on Monday.
Important Dates:
November 24-25: No School Thanksgiving Break
What To Work On At Home:
Challenge your student to name all the letters in the alphabet and also ask what sound the letters make.
Practice blending/segmenting words with your child. (ex: c/a/t, m/a/p) Also work on recognizing color words and the words “I’ and “see.”
Please work on recognizing numbers 0-20.
Fine motor skills to work on:
coloring, cutting, and writing their name.
