We will display them and return on Friday. T
Some of the stories that we will be reading this week are:
One day, a fox saw a crow with a piece of meat in his beak. The fox was very hungry and thought, “How can I get the piece of cheese?”
He thought for a while. Soon, an idea struck him. Ask your child what happened!!!
While the other field mice work to gather grain and nuts for winter, Frederick sits on a sunny rock by himself. “I gather sun rays for the cold dark winter days,” he tells them. Another day he gathers “colors,” and then “words.” And when the food runs out, it is Frederick, the dreamer and poet, whose endless store of supplies warms the hearts of his fellow mice, and feeds their spirits during the darkest winter days.
Two best friends, a minnow and a tadpole, are practically inseparable until the tadpole grows legs and decides to explore the world beyond the pond. When the tadpole, now a frog, returns to tell his friend of the extraordinary things he’s seen, the minnow, now a fish, tries to follow in his footsteps, but quickly finds that land is not what he expected.
We will continue working with the sight words that were introduced last week: do, so, am, she, go
Please take 15 minutes every day to practice them at home with your child. It is very important for all of them to recognize all the sight words we have covered in class so far. Once they can recognize sight words, it is going to be a lot easier for them to read books. The following link is a nice and fun game to practice these words.
In Math, we are going to continue working on a unit about Measurement. The children will have fun measuring things around the room using different kinds of items. We will use items from the class such as unifix cubes, links, blocks, etc. You may want to do some measurement activities with your child at home. At this time, they will use non-standard units of measurement and not the rulers that we normally use to measure things. This week our main focus will be weight. We will be using balances!!!
The children are having an extremely great time learning about all different kinds of animals. This week our main focus will be learning about FISH!!! We will be discussing their characteristics, the way they breathe, and how they are born.
This Tuesday, we will celebrate Valentine´s Day. We will be having lunch altogether to celebrate this special day. We will be talking about ways to be nice to each other and we will be discussing Friendship. Please send Lps. 80.00 by Monday to order the lunch, drinks, dessert.
