The students have been working hard and I am proud of them!
We have been focusing on number and letter formation, letter sounds, counting
and patterning all week long. Last week
we focused on the letter Aa. The kids seemed to LOVE making alligator puppets.
We made our alligators eat things that began with A. We also introduced our
fourth sight word: is. We sing this song everyday!
If you are
looking for ways to practice at home, check out the DOG binder. Inside the
binder you will find tools to help you study at home. You could choose 2-3 sight
words to focus on each week, go through each letter and letter sound and
practice counting by 1s. You can also help your child practice writing his/her
name using lower case letters except for the first letter. In the future, I will be sending home reading
books and sight word flashcards.
Just a reminder, the green folders are due on
Tuesday. Please return them empty. Anything that needs to be returned should be
in the communication binder. Library
books are also due on Tuesday. Thank you!
Here are some of the other great activities we have been working on...
I can make AB patterns!
Working on one-to-one correspondence.
Exploring Pattern Blocks!
Our newest center: Domino Parking Lot! The kids count the dots on each domino and then find the number on the parking lot sheet.
Learning the "one more" concept.
They are actively engaged in learning!
Exploring the Writing Center
Beginning Sound Center
Working so hard!
The children are comparing using the words longer, shorter or equal.
We know how to use the Computer Center!
Upper and Lower Case matching!
Building letters!
We read the book Ten Apples up on Top! We drew pictures of ourselves and used bingo stamper to add apples "up on top". I will be taking the papers and making a class book out of them.
Counting by touch activity: Each student had a partner. One person had to count how many times their partner tapped them on the back just by feeling the taps.
New student alert! Welcome to our class! We are so happy that you are here.
