WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 28-OCTOBER 2, 2015





Dear Parents, 




This week we will be learning about the letter Ff. The vocabulary for this letter is the following: frog, flower, fish, fan, feather, fox, fire, feet, five, fingers, fork, flamingo, farm, fence, football, firefly.



 Some of the stories that we are going to be reading are:
The most beautiful fish in the ocean is asked to share one of his shining scales with a little blue fish, and to which he refuses. All the other fish in the sea leave him alone, and he wondered why. He goes to the wise octopus for advice, and she tells him to give away his scales. Rainbow Fish reluctantly does so, except for one. In the end, he is less beautiful then he was before, but he has new friends and is now the happiest fish in the sea.









RHYME OF THE WEEK:







In Math we are going to work with the number seven. We will do fun math centers to reinforce counting and recognizing numbers from one-seven. We will also work doing AB patterns using counters.


THEME:

We will continue working with ''PARTS OF THE BODY''




Please don't forget to bring folder and notebook every Monday!
