The children are really settling into school! They have already learned so much!
In Reading, we have worked on identifying the first letter of our names and finding the letter in the alphabet strip. The children have been busy conting words in sentences by clapping for each word or stepping each word. We have started reading the letter poems in the Alphabet big Book and locating the letters in words. By the end of October we will have moved through to letter Ee. We have learned the sight words, my, the and and. We have been working on print awareness and realizing how books work!
In Math, the children have worked on rote counting, counting using one-to-one correspondence and making sets to match numerals 1 - 5. We are beginning to move into identifying, extending and constructing patterns. We had fun using musical instruments to make sound patterns!
In Writing, the children are working on writing their name using an uppercase letter for the first letter and lowercase letters for the rest of the letters in their name. Also, the children are working on expressing their thoughts through drawing.
We continue to have a blast in Prek!!
