August 7-12

We had a wonderful first full week of school. We learned what sound the letter Ll made. We practice writing our name and the letter Ll. We learned about our five senses and what makes us different. We also learned where above, below, besides, inside, outside, front, and behind were. Our library day was changed from Monday to Friday. When our class goes to the library, this is when we will turn our books in and check out new ones.

Sneak preview of this week:

In reading, we will be learning that letters make words and matching uppercase letters with lowercase letters. We also will be learning about the letter Oo. We will learn how to write the letter, the letter sound and what objects start with that letter. In math, we will be learning how to group items. In science, we will be learning how we use our Five Senses help us group items. In social studies, we will be learning about the rules of the school, classroom and community and what can happen if we don‘t follow them.

Picture day is Tuesday, August 16, 2011. Students are able to dress up, no jeans allowed.
