FOR THE WEEK OF November 30,2009:
This week we will be intorducing the letter "O,o" and the word "is." We
will be reviewing the letters "C,c,N,n,I,i,M,m,P,p,S,s,T,t" as well as
reviewing the words "have, see, can, go, we," and "to." We will also be
reviewing color words, number words, and patterns. We will discuss the
characters in stories, the sequence of events, and the settings, as well as
the author and illustrator. We will begin talking about various animals and
their habitats. There are three weeks before the Christmas break. We will
discuss animals the first two weeks and then have a week of Christmas fun as
well as learning and reviewing that week.
If possible, please send in small paper plates and large paper
plates. Please do not send in styrofoam as we can't paint on it. These items
are needed for upcoming art projects. Thank you so much for your help.
Don't forget to keep up with the reading logs for "Book It!" You can
list the books sent home in the purple folder as well as books you choose
from home or from the public library. Earn your free kid's pizza coupon from
Pizza Hut! We started the November "Book It!" last week.
We are continuing our Smart Bodies program. Each day we will be
encouraged to eat the fruits and vegetables offered in our cafeteria. We also
will exercise for at least 10 minutes using learning songs. This should be a
benefitful program for the children and myself!
