Early Literacy Skill

When reading familiar stories to your child, try stopping once in a awhile and let him/her fill in what comes next in the story.  This is a fun way to help with comprehension skills.

         This is a short week because of the Thanksgiving holiday.  Remember school will be out on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.  Enjoy your holiday and have a wonderful time together! 

         We have been working hard on retelling stories.  Have your child tell you one of his/her favorite stories using words like, first, next, then and finally. 

         The sounds we have covered are: c, g, s, d, m, n, h, t, v, a, i, o.  Each child can segment these individual sounds and blend them together to make words using the pattern consonant, vowel, consonant.  (mad, tot, sit).

         In math, we will continue to focus on representing and comparing numbers 0-10.  We will then move on to addition.

         We will be learning about plants for the next few weeks including what plants need to live and grow, identifying the root, stem, branch, leaf, flower, fruit, and seed of a plant and the basic life cycle of plants.   

         Thanks again for sharing your amazing children with me and have a fabulous week!
