This week we are going to be working with the letter
Ll. The vocabulary words that we are going to be focusing on are the
following: lollipop, lizard, lemon, light bulb, ladder, lamb, lips,
lobster, library, lamp, lightning, lettuce, ladybug, lid, and log.
Some of the stories we are going to be reading this
week are:
Lulu the Lamb doesn’t know when to stop laughing until
Lion teaches her a lesson.
This story explores the concepts of time, size and
manners through the exploits of one very grouchy ladybug. When it refuses to
share aphids with another ladybug, the grouchy insect flies off to pick a fight
an hour with a succession of ever-larger animals.
In Math, we are going to be introducing number 17. The
children will make sets with this number. We are also going to be constructing
pictographs. Each child will have the chance to create their own graph.
We will continue to work with the sight
words introduced last week: by, can, or, one, had. Click on the following link
to find a great game you may want to try with your child at home.
In our phonemic awareness we are going to start
studying Ending Consonants. By this, we mean the ending consonant they hear in
words such as bat, dog, paper, and pencil. We are NOT focusing on ending sounds
like house, mice, and candle.
In Science we will begin a unit about Food. We are
going to be discussing healthy and unhealthy snacks. We are also going to
introduce them the Food Pyramid and talk about each type of food. Children will
get the chance to name food that is eaten during the breakfast, lunch and
dinner. If you have any books or posters, or any other material that you would
like to share with us it would be greatly appreciated.
We would like to give a
big Thank You to Valeria Gough and Vanessa Sovalbarro for donating the
ingredients last week. The children enjoyed making a rainbow out of froot
loops, marshmallows and whipped cream. The children in charge for donating the
ingredients for Kindergarten Kafe this Friday are Camilla Matamoros and
Giulliana Florentino. Thanks in advance.
