Wed. 10/4- last class day for BOX TOPS!I am delighting in the wonder and joy of your children as they observe the butterfly life cycle! Some things are just more magical when experienced through the eyes of a child. Reason #538 that I love Kindergarten :)
Math
- We are really working on not only identifying and writing numbers 0-10, but also looking at different ways to form those numbers. In class, we do this through the use of subitizing cards, ten frames, etc. Although it may seem as though we are moving slowly, please know that our goal is to really give the children a strong foundation in number sense. Numbers are beautiful! They are everywhere! Mathematics is one of God's languages. Take a look around at His wonderful creation and see where numbers can be found.
Reading
- Remember to review previous lesson before moving on to new one!
- The "Mini-books" that we do during class are a great way to review and practice. You might want to keep them all in a zip lock bag to have a great tool of books your child can read on his/her own. There will be one coming home every school day!
Writing
- Please keep working on pencil grip and making proper handwriting strokes! (generally left to right, top to bottom).
Spelling
- Go over yellow phonogram cards and blue key cards at least twice a day.
- Please continue to review AAS steps 1-4. We will resume with step 5 in a few weeks.
- Continue blending and segmenting words (ex: cat=c/a/t, c/a/t=cat)
History (see table above)
Science
- Our catterpillars are forming their chrysalis! We are marveling at God's creation!
