Week of April 23rd -28th Letter Ww

Dear Parents,

This week we are going to be working with the letter Ww. The vocabulary that we are going to be focusing on is the following: wagon, watch, watermelon, web, water, 
wheel, whistle, wing, wink, worm, walrus, wreath, well, window, and windmill, wagon, watering can.

If you have any items at home that begin with this letter, send them over with your child and we will be discussing them in class, we will display them on a table and we will return them back on Friday. The kids get excited to bring things from home.

Some of the stories that we will be reading this week are:

Everyone wants a ride in worm's wagon, but will worm be able to pull the weight? The children will laugh and learn as we read this wacky tale that teaches the letter W.

The story focuses on a young boy named Max, who, after dressing in his wolf costume, wreaks havoc through his household and is disciplined by being sent to his bedroom. As he feels agitation with his mother, Max's bedroom undergoes a mysterious transformation into a jungle environment, and he winds up sailing to an island inhabited by malicious beasts known as the "Wild Things."

A little boy, called Peter, would like to whistle to call his dog Willie and try very hard but couldn't figure out how to do it. Peter sees other children whistling for their dogs. He tried to whistle in varieties of ways between spinning, hiding in boxes, coloring with chalks, pretending to be his father, walking the cracks in the sidewalks but failed. After many attempts he finally whistles for his dog Willie. He showed his parents he can whistle. When his parents sent him to buy some grocery for them he whistles to and from the grocery store.

We will continue working with the sight words introduced last week: when, your, will, how, and use

The children are becoming experts in recognizing what a noun, a verb and an adjective is. This week we will be working on plurals. The only rule that we will be introducing to them is whether or not they should add an “s” to a singular noun or not. For example dog-dogs, cat-cats.

We will continue working on the concepts of greater than, less than, and equal to.

This week in Science unit we will studying about SPACE.  We will learn about the Sun and the Moon. If you have any stories at home that can help us understand these concepts better, please send them over with your child. This is a theme that mostly kids enjoy. We are going to be studying this theme for one whole month!
