WEEK OF OCTOBER 12-16, 2015




Dear Parents,

This will be a Review Week!!! We will be reviewing the letters and sounds of the alphabet we have studied so far with the corresponding vocabulary words introduced for each letter.
We will be doing  different activities to review and evaluate this letters and 
 numbers 0-5. The children should be able to recognize these numbers out of sequence, making sets to match each number and sequence the numbers in the correct order. 


We are also going to have an Author Study about Mo Willems. If you have any books about this wonderful author please send them with your child to school. We will be reading some of his books and watching interesting videos about the way he creates his books.
Some of the books that we chose to read in class are the following:
