Hello families,
Here's what we will be working on for this week:
Letter A
Students will be able to recognize the letter "A" and the different sounds it can make. We will discuss words that start with "A" during our circle time.
We will meet "Apple Annie"- our friend from the Frog Street Press Curriculum - and sing a song about words that start with "A".
We will do the first of our regular weekly letter worksheets, which involves dot painting the letter and identifying pictures that begin with the letter of the week.
On Wednesday, students will taste apples in red, green, and yellow, and we will graph our favorites.
We will celebrate Johnny Appleseed Day on Friday and begin our cooking the alphabet program. An informational page about this will be sent home on Monday. Students enjoy cooking their own simple treats that begin with the letter of the week. This is a great way to tune fine motor skills and foster good self esteem. The finished result is something they are proud of - and they taste good too!!
Please contact me with any questions at any time!! I am looking forward to diving into this curriculum with the children! We will have so much fun!!
