Reading and Writing

This week we are reading Brown, Bear, Brown Bear. The children are working on building their fluency when reading the story and they have enjoyed the character sticks in the retelling station.

Our color song this week is BLUE!

We are reading and discussing books about school and friends.
This week we read My Friends and today we are reading I Love School.
The children are responding to what they are reading through journaling.
I am encouraging them to draw and label their pictures using the letter sounds that they hear.
Each day we are working on activating our schema.
Ask your child to sing their schema song.
Today we will make connections to what we are reading.
When the children are reading at home ask- "What does this remind you of?" "What are your connections to the story?"

In math we are working daily on indentifying numbers 0-20. We are counting and matching manipulatives with the given number. Show your child a number at home and have them count manipulatives to match the given number.
Many of our friends can identifying numbers beyond 20, so we are playing games that support their learning.


Our high frequency words that I have taught are
The, and, up, go, love, do, see,can

I am encouraging the children to find these words when they are reading with you at home.
Give your child some sticky notes and have them write these words. They can post them in the house and play find that word!
