Happy Halloween!





Focus on Curriculum     

November  2, 2018

Jolly Phonics:  This week we learned the letters l and f.  For the letter l we pretend we are licking a lollipop.  To make the sound of the letter f we pretend that we are squeezing the air out of an inflatable fish. We know the sounds of the letters: s, a, t, p, n, c, k, i, e, h, r, m, d, g, o, u, l, and f.  We like to sing songs and do actions for each sound to help us remember them.   Remember to review the sounds we have learned in the letter and sound packet, which shows all the motions and sounds used to make each letter of the alphabet that we will learn this year.  It is for your reference so you can practice with your children as we learn each new letter and the sound of that letter.
Reading:  We read the book From Seed to Pumpkin.  We did many activities that centered on the story. 
Popcorn Words:  This week we learned the sight words my and run.  We are going to keep our word rings in the front sleeve of our green folder so we can practice our words at school and at home.  
Math: We continued working with the numbers 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.  We also continued working on composing and decomposing numbers.   We continue counting everyday in class focusing on our end of the year goal of counting to 100.  Our math centers had a fall and Halloween theme. 
Art:  We made a pumpkin vine project showing the growth process from seed to pumpkin.
We had so much fun at our class Halloween party!  Thank you to all!
