Dear Parents,
Last week was all about the letter “B” - we reviewed how to write the letter and talked about all the words that begin with it. We paid special attention to butterflies by reading The Very Hungry Caterpillar and talking about how that little bug becomes a beautiful butterfly. We learned about the life-cycle of a butterfly and made scientific observations of a caterpillar and butterfly’s environment. I hope you enjoyed hearing about the noodle and pipe-cleaner art projects your child brought home (we had a lot of fun making them!).
This week, we have three main ideas we are going to explore:
1. Phonics - Letter “C” and “D”
- Writing with good penmanship
- “C” and “D” page for our alphabet book
- Discussing things that start with “C” and “D”
2. Math - Number “5”
- Practice writing “5”
- Finding 5 objects
- (This week’s math will experiment with sorting and matching)
3. Language Arts - Reading/Art
- Reading books with “C” and “D” (Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, Harry the Dirty Dog, etc.)
- Art projects that coincide with the concepts in each book
On Fridays, please return only your child’s completed homework in the brown clasp envelope. Please return the Book Worm Bag on Mondays.
As Always...
