This week we will be continuing our sight words "I, am, the, little." Please make sure and practice these nightly and have them mixed up. Also, we will be learning the rest of the alphabet this week. Children should be able to identify all letters of the alphabet. Please take 5-10 minutes and practice this nightly. I have sent home alphabet assessment information to the B class on Friday and the A class will receive theirs on Monday.
The best method for practicing letters is to only put the ones they know in a pile plus 2 they do not know. Then go through pile until they can correctly identify all the letters. Once they identify all the letters add two more they do not know and practice. You would continue this method until they can identify all 52 letters (this means the uppercase letters and lowercase letters are not on the same card).
We will be reading "Miss Bindergarten Takes a Field Trip" this week and will be classifying. We will also review characters, setting, and sequencing. The children are doing a great job with identifying the characters of a story and the setting. Sequencing can be tricky because the children are not remembering the beginning, middle, and end in the correct order; therefore, we will continue to work on this skill.
We will begin Chapter 2 this week and the focus is comparing numbers. This means children will be able to identify numbers which are larger and smaller with sets less than 5. We will play various math games to help with this concept and will be using various math tools to help us too. I think the children should like this chapter! I hope they come home and talk about what they are doing in math.
I hope you have a great week!
