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!
