Nursery Rhymes!!

Our theme of nursery rhymes is almost complete! We had a wonderful week full of learning new rhymes such as "Hickory Dickory Dock", "Hey Diddle Diddle" and "Jack and Jill". Of course we couldn't leave out "Little Miss Muffet" and "The Itsy Bitsy Spider". The students enjoyed singing songs and learning finger plays related to the classic Mother Goose stories.

We used the SMART board to move the mouse around the clock to learn positional words...

We created cat and fiddle AB patterns...

We also played with the animals from Old McDonald's Farm...

Our next theme will be APPLES!! We learn all about red, green and yellow apples for the next 2 weeks. Please remember to talk to your child about their school day and review with them their name and basic numbers 0-10.

Please remember to ask your child questions about what activities they did in school. We look forward to a fun week full of literacy!!

Chicka Chicka Boom Boom!!

As part of our study on the classic children's book Chicka Chicka Boom Boom by Bill Martin Jr., our class when on a Letter hunt around the school. The children enjoyed getting to show their friends what letters they saw during the activity. Here are a few snapshots from our hunt.

This week, we will switch from Letters to Numbers where we will base our activities around Chicka Chicka 123 also by Bill Martin Jr. Encourage your child to go on a hunt around your home just as they have in school. Enjoy!
