Our Five Senses

This week we are going to learn about each of the five senses.  In class we will be  reading various fiction and non-fiction books to help guide our learning.

Today we worked on starting our sentences with a capital letter, finger spacing, and ending our sentences with a period.

We are working all this week on identifying, writing, and counting to 20. Each day we are asking the children to match a number of objects to the given number. 
During calendar time we are working on patterning.  We discuss how many parts are in our patterns and describe them.

Handwriting is going very well during small group time.  When practicing at home please be sure your child is using the correct lines.  We don't like floating letters.  The are confusing. 
We are using a top, middle, and bottom line every time we write.  We call it the sky, fence, and the ground.
At the end of this week the children will be assessed on writing their first and last name the school way.
