In math, we are finishing up our first chapter on Understanding Numbers 1-10. We read Anno’s Counting Book and even drew a few pages to add to our own counting books when we are all finished. We have also been working really hard on practicing how to write the numbers 1-5 and so far have been doing a super job! We have also learned about circles, squares, rectangles, and soon triangle. Stay tuned for some "Shapes Show and Tell" :)
In handwriting, we finished our basic strokes and have been starting to learn how to write the letters that match our Alphafriends. In reading, we have been reading a lot of books and started learning the sounds our Alphafriends make, so we can start reading on our own. We have also started our Star Words and can start reading them and writing them in sentences! Keep practicing!
Finally, we’ve learned a lot and had fun during our centers. We’ve learned about apples, colors, and will be doing fun autumn projects in the weeks to come.
We are looking forward to our upcoming field trips. The apple orchard and The Farm this week, and the fire station for fire safety week next week. Please remember to dress warmly and in layers. Also, students and chaperons will need a cold lunch and drink for the day.
