Literacy
This week we are working on the letter Gg and our alphafriend is Gertie Goose. Talk with your child about words that start with the /g/ sound as we will be making a list on Friday! In kindergarten we only specifically focus on the /g/ sound. The /j/ sound will be addressed more formally in 1st grade.
We have two new word wall words this week: love, go.
In writing this week we are learning new ways to share our stories, at our tables or with our partners. We are also discussing how we can use resources like our sight words and word family words to help us spell words quickly when we are writing.
Math
In math we are working on finding partners in numbers. For example, partners for 6 would be: 5+1, 4+2, and 3+3. We are also working on drawing numbers of objects using five groups. For example, 8 would be five and then three more.
Social Studies
We will be visiting a little more about People and Celebrations. We will be talking about how different cultures protect their citizens and that we have the different branches of the military. We will be making cards for a young friend of mine who is in basic training!
Donations!
We are once again in need of some donated items. Here is a list of a few that are needed now in our classroom:
1. Hand sanitizer
2. batteries
3. white board markers
4. page protectors
If you are able to donate any of these items please feel free to bring them to me or send them to school with your student. Thank you!
