Focus on Curriculum
October 19, 2018
Jolly Phonics: This week we
learned the letters d and g. For the
letter d we pretend we are playing the drums.
To make the sound of the letter g we pretend that water is gurgling down
the drain. We know the sounds of the letters: s, a, t, p, i, n, c, k, e,
h, r, m, d, and g. 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 The
Legend of Spookley the Square Pumpkin.
We did many activities that centered on the story. We also read Disney Scary Stories. Lastly, we added a new poem to our poetry
binders.
Popcorn Words: This
week we learned the sight words it and is and put them on our
word ring We completed make-a-match activities focusing on the words it and is.
Handwriting: We worked on our
letters d and g upper and lower case.
Math: We talked about reading, writing, and counting numbers
up to 10. We also focused on composing
and decomposing numbers. Our math
centers had a Halloween theme.
Art: We made a
Spookley pumpkin project
