Wolcott's What's Up
A God's Gifts PreKindergarten Classroom Update 10.17.2016
We had a batty good week
Dear Parents-
We had a "Batty" week learning about letter B!!!
A couple highlights:
- The class loved learning all of the cool facts about bats!
- We practiced swinging our imaginary bats as we sang our letter "Bb" song.
- I'm so proud of all of the effort each child is putting in during class, and the growth I'm seeing is amazing!! Way to go Pre-K!!
Pictures From The Week
Letter of the Week
Our letter this past week was the letter "Bb". We learned the sound that "Aa" makes, words that begin with that sound/letter and how the letter is shaped. We stamped, traced, and used salt to form "Bb"s ! The kids love to listen to the song "Ants on my arm" from our Jolly Phonics CD.
Math
We practiced counting this week in math. Our goal is counting to ten. Specifically, we focused on sorting and counting by doing a button sort. We also played "Bat Cave", a dice rolling game.
Firefighter Visit
Firefighter, Andrea Montgomery from the Montgomery Fire Department visited out classroom this week. Andrea, a friend of mine, spoke to the children what to do if you have a fire in your house, how to call 911 and the importance of fire detectors.
