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.
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: then,
little, two, red, and here
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.
We
are requesting 2 carnet size picture of your child for their Kindergarten
Diploma. Please send these pictures before Friday, April 29th. Thank You!!!
