This week in phonics we will work on the letter Gg. We will continue with show and tell on Thursday and Friday with the focus on objects having the beginning sound of g. We will also read and enjoy a classic story "The Three Billy Goats Gruff" and take turns acting out the characters using some stick puppets.
In math, we have just completed our first assessment on shapes. We are moving into the next group of lessons which will be covering sorting objects by color; using words like inside, in front of, behind, and outside to describe position, and also will be describing shapes by the number of sides and corners.
In reading, we are going on to our third story titled, “Plaidypus Lost”, The children will enjoy listening to this story about a stuffed toy that gets lost. The focus skill will be to identify the sequence of the story.
In science, we are continuing our study of trees. We will talk about the parts of a tree and the changes some trees go through during the seasons.
