Dear Parents,
This week we are going to be working with the letter Nn. The vocabulary that we are going to be focusing on is the following: nest, necklace, newspaper, nail, nuts, needle, numbers,nine, nose, nurse.
STORY OF THE WEEK:
The Napping House
This delightful cumulative tale has been a favorite with readers and listeners since its debut. It's a rainy afternoon and Granny is snoring on the bed in a cozy room. A child crawls on top of her and dreams. Gradually, the pile increases with a dozing dog, a snoozing cat, a slumbering mouse and finally a wakeful flea who, by biting the mouse, sets off a chain of events which results in a broken pile and even a broken bed. Each page repeats the action from bottom up.
Some of the stories that we will be reading this week are:
In Math we will be learning the number 11. We will be counting and number correspondence. We will also be working with patterns.
Theme:
''COMMUNITY HELPERS''
Students need to understand that there are people that have different types of jobs that all help the community in some way.
The students will be able to name some of the different types of helpers there are in their community. The students will also be able to understand how the different helpers benefit or help the community.
RHYME OF THE WEEK:
SCHOLASTIC BOOK ORDERS - Scholastic Book Club leaflets are out. This is an optional activity offered by the school, because we know you want to motivate your child to read at home. With your purchase, our library will accumulate points to redeem more books for the benefit of your children in our school. The due date to purchase the books online is Jan.30. The books will arrive to the school in one single delivery, and we will distribute them to the students according to their orders, approximately three weeks after the purchase due date.
BRICKS4KIDS – As an after school activity for our younger students, the school has been in contact with Bricks4 kidz to offer six one-hour, Friday- afternoon sessions beginning on Friday, January 30 from 3:15 to 4:15 p.m..
