Learning our Letters and Sounds!

This week we have worked to learn the letters W, Z, C, and D. Please continue reading and writing those letters at home. We will be sending home the books and printing sheets daily to reinforce our learning.
Thanks for completing the homework at home! We must use the homework as an extra time to practice, practice, practice. You can keep the homework packet at home and just send the weekly sheet if you would like.
We are learning about environmental print. Please take a look and see if you have any empty cereal boxes at home. Please send the front covers to school. We will be highlighting our knowledge of letters and sounds while reading those covers. Also, we can create a book that we all can read from the cereal covers.
We completed our study on Kevin Henkes. We read the stories Owen and A Weekend with Wendell. We learned more about characters and predicted what might happen next. Ask your child about Peter Predictor and see if they can describe his job when we read stories in class.
We continued to work on numbers, matching, and sorting in math. Please practice sorting objects at home based on color, shape, size, texture, or any other fun classification.
Lastly, I am sending home name worksheets. Please practice these at your convenience, they will not be graded.
