Our First Week!



Focus on Curriculum     

September 2, 2016


Jolly Phonics:  This week we learned the letters a and t.  We pretend ants are crawling up our arm for the letter a.  To make the sound of the letter t we pretend we are watching a tennis match. We know the sounds of the letters: s, a, and t. We like to sing songs and do actions for each sound to help us remember them. 
Reading:  We read The Kissing Hand.  We did many activities that centered on the story. We also read Chester The Brave and Chester Raccoon and the Big Bad Bully!
Popcorn Words:  This week we worked with our first sight Word a. We also worked on  Chester The Brave activities that focused on the word a in which we had to color according to a color code.  
Math: We started our first math unit.  We worked on counting 1, 2, 3, and 4 counting 1, 2,3 and 4 in different arrangements and reading and writing the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4. 
Art:  We did a Chester the Raccoon project that you can see when you come to Curriculum Night this upcoming Thursday night.
Social Studies:  Our Weekly Reader focused on our classroom community!
