A Peek at the Week
Weekly Skills: This weeks focus will be on K, F, B, G and C. Please ask your child about each friend and their gesture each night. I will be sending home a handwriting book as well as the Phonics Song sheet in a protective cover. Please make sure your child reviews the Phonics Song daily and practices writing the letter of the day!
Math: The students continue to work on building strong number sense skills 0-10. We are also developing strong motor skills through cutting, gluing and directional drawing skills. Shapes have become a focus as well.
Help at Home
- Identifying letters in your child's name if they have not previous experience
- Identify letters of the alphabet (A-Z and a-z). In the past couple of weeks, we have covered P, U, M, O, X, A, T, S, R, D, H, and J. I encourage your child to practice these pages in the handwriting book I am sending home
- Write his/her name using a capitol letter at the beginning and lower case throughout the rest of the name
- Practice counting on from any given number (example - have your child begin counting at 12 and continue to count to 34)
- Practice tying his/her shoes
- Practice Phonics Song with Letter chart
