Asia

Last week we wrapped up our Family unit. This week we are starting our new unit where we will be learning all about Asia, the letter C and the number 2. 

If your family has any empty liter soda bottles to donate for a project that would be greatly appreciated.

We are continuing our book borrowing program, please try to read the books at home with your child that they picked out and return them on Thursday each week.

Also please remember if you haven't turned in your immunization records and medical authorization to do ASAP so your child doesn't have to miss any fun days!

Week 3 and 4: All About Me

We made it through he first two weeks of Back to School! 
 I hope everyone enjoyed their Labor Day weekend.

These next two weeks our curriculum theme is All About Me! 
This week we are getting to know all about your child's favorite things, their families, friends and lives. We sent home an All About Me Poster this week for your student to complete and bring back.  Each student will present their poster to the class and it will then be displayed for the next week. It's so fun to see what answers they come up with! We will also be working on:

Language Arts: 
Letter Aa, Letter/word recognition assessment, Journals

Math: 
Number 0, circles vs. Ovals, color recognition, measurements 

Science:
 All About our Bodies

Social Studies: 
All About Different Families

Technology: 
Ipad Body Game

Art: 
Self Portraits

Today the kids got started on learning about themselves by tracing and decorating their body outlines. 

Take a few minutes to "Guess Who" when you see them decorating the main hallway!

The weekend homework assignment for this week is to finish your All About Me Poster and an All About Me Math worksheet to be completed and returned to school. It will be sent home Thursday 9/5  or you can print a copy out below:


Enjoy your weekend!
