Week of August 30th

This week we have added to the primary colors and now have red, yellow, blue, green, orange, and purple. We will be mixing colors. The books Mouse Paint and Little Blue Little Yellow will be used to introduce this topic.
Our letter this week is Aa and we will use Annie Alligator as our sound. Now we have Silly Snake and Annie Alligator. Help your child listen for these sounds in words. We teach letter sound rather than letter names.
Thursday we will be doing lots of things with apples! We will taste them, spread peanut butter on them, sing songs and read books about them.
Our students are learning to follow directions, share with friends, take turns, cut with scissors, paint, glue, draw and trace.
We are having lots of fun "playing" as we learn.

Next month we will be learning about families! We would like each child to bring a picture (photo or drawing) of their family.

On Thursday, September 9th we will be having a Teddy Bear's Picnic. Have your child bring their favorite teddy bear (or other stuffed animal) and a snack to share.
