October Newsletter
Week of October 19-23, 2015
Learning Focus:
Math- We will learn numbers 7 and 8: identifying, writing, making representations, and identifying groups. We will continue working on one-to-one correspondence, counting, and sorting. We are working on counting to 50.
Reading – We will learn letters "Nn" "Hh". We will name and identify objects that begin with "N" and "H" sounds.
These are the letters we have introduced so far this year:
A, C, O, G, T, F, S, P, I, and now N and H.
Please have your child practice naming these at home. All students should be able to name the capital and lowercase of these letters, as well as tell you all the sounds each letter makes.
We will be working on the Sight Words: has and no. Please practice them at home.
These are the Sight Words your child should be able to proficiently read at this point:
a, and, are, can, is, me, my, on, see, the, little, you and I.
Writing – We are working on writing the letters "Nn" and "Hh" correctly. They are both line letters, meaning they start at the line.
Please reinforce this at home. Please also continue helping your child write his/name correctly. It is VERY important that children form their letters correctly NOW, when we are learning them.Thank you!
