Dear Parents,
This week we are going to be focusing our study on the letter Cc. The vocabulary for this letter is : Cat, Cow, Carrot, Cake, Cap, Car, Coat, Cookie, Crab, Crown, Clown.
Some of the stories that we will be reading this week are:
STORY OF THE WEEK:
The Very Hungry Caterpillar starts off with a little egg lying on a leaf. The egg hatches, and out crawls a very hungry, very tiny caterpillar. Focusing on the basic concept of the number of days in the week, we follow the famished caterpillar as he sets out to look for some food. He begins on Monday, eating through one apple. Tuesday, he eats through two pears. Wednesday he eats through tree plums, but he’s still hungry. The story goes on at he eats his way through various fruits until Saturday, when he eats his way through a plethora of item (including chocolate cake, a pickle, and ice cream cone, and Swiss cheese.)Ending up with a stomach ache, he eats through one fresh green leaf, and finds he is no longer a little caterpillar, but a big fat one. He builds a cocoon around himself and stays inside for two weeks, until he emerges as a beautiful butterfly.
We will continue talking about ''My Family''What happens at home is EVERYTHING to a preschooler. Preschool family activities can and should be talked about in preschool!
This gives students the opportunity to talk about the people most important to them and also helps them realize that family, the people we live with, is something we all have in common, regardless of how our families look!
Rhyme of the week:
Every Friday, children will take home their evaluation for the week. Please sign it
