We continue to practice a letter each day. We say the letter and letter sound, find things that start with that letter, and practice writing the letter correctly. You child has been bringing a handwriting sheet home each night. Please help reinforce what we learn at school by working on letters at home with your child! Some of the letters can be tricky to write, so extra practice is very helpful! We have gone through the alphabet A-H and will continue until we reach Z! We also practiced writing some color words on the marker boards.
We haven't started our math text yet, but we have been talking a lot about numbers, counting, and patterns. We also practice calendar concepts each day. We have written numbers 1-3 and will continue to practice a new number each day. We have also been working in a fun math packet where we can draw our own patterns. Later in the book we will draw pictures to solve different math stories. This book will come home once it is finished.
Next week, we will be studying nursery rhymes and reviewing shapes. Take some time to explore shapes around your home. Help your child find or make different shapes like square, circle, triangle, rectangle, oval, start, and heart and even some harder shapes like hexagon, octagon, pentagon, rhombus, and trapezoid. Shapes are all around us!
