Presidential Election.. Families... and Turkey Time! BOY HAVE WE BEEN BUSY!!
Dear Parents-
i hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving filled will family, yummy food, and fun!! December is right around the corner and we will be talking all about how Jesus was born on Christmas Day!
- The Presidential Election was so much fun for the kids. The kids were able to decide and vote if the new president should get a cat or dog to live in the White House.
- We have been practicing our rhyming words during circle time and the children are really getting the hang of it!!
- Thank you Mrs. Kirk for coming in to be a guest reader!! The kids enjoyed listening to one of Maggie's favorite books!
- We enjoyed a Thanksgiving Feast with the other Pre-K classes. We made pilgrim hats, placemats, and enjoyed fruit filled waffle cones..and pumpkin pie in a cup!! They were all so cute!

Letter of the Week
The past few weeks we have covered the letters Vv and Ff. We have reviewed the letters and sounds through letter Bingo, rainbow letter practice, and journal writing. I am so excited the the children can spell their names, recite their last name, how old they are, and what their moms names are!!! We are starting to chop out the sounds of one syllable words using their hand and arm!!
Math
I am so proud of the class! They are doing such a great job patterning, sorting, and counting, and number recognition. A lot of this is done during circle time and centers. They love to estimate, count, and sort the items in our estimation jar. We are learning different ways to sort such as, color, size, and type.
Reminders
- Continue to work with your child on spelling and writing his/her name.
- Review the letters we have learned this year and the sound each makes
- Vendor Fair Saturday, Dec. 3rd! Come and shop!!
