Hi,
Happy Fall to all of you! I wanted to update you on what we are learning 
about in the different subject areas:

Math- We are working on two and three dimensional shapes. We are working on 
identifying them and giving examples of things in the environment that are 
shaped like that. We will be working on various math centers on this topic as 
well. The children are doing a great job in math centers. We are working on 
becoming more independent.

Social Studies- We are discussing the American symbols such as the statue of 
liberty, liberty bell, white house, etc. We will be going into a unit on 
Thanksgiving and discussing the story of it. We will be doing many center 
activities on this holiday.

The children are doing a great job with the word lists. Thanks for working 
with your children on these lists. I will be sending home the next list of 
words before too long.

Language Arts- We are working on rhyming words with our big book during 
morning group time. The children continue to identify and work on sight words 
at this time. We are working on letter sounds and identifying words that 
begin with that letter.

Thanks to everyone that has contributed to the Mountain View Foundation as 
well as donations to the classroom. We greatly appreciate the support that 
has provided. Kristin
