Dear 4K Families,
We had a great week learning new songs to support our learning and enjoyed rhyming together!
This week I also tested your child to see where they are currently at, and if they are hitting the "learning targets" that are listed on the September Newsletter. Many students need extra practice writing their name. Keep in mind when working on this at home that ONLY the first letter in their name should be uppercase, the rest needs to be lowercase. We are also working on letter formation. Please use the "letter formation" sheet I sent home as a reference- I do observe how studnets are writing their letters.
Rhyming is also a skill that many of the students are struggling with- I ask that you play some fun silly games with your child to help them master this "learning target."
Attached also is two pictures of what you should find in your child's folder-just like last week. There is a cut and paste- please work with your child on using scissors the appropriate way and how to use a glue stick appropriately. We still have a few students who can't cut and it's making them become frustrated- please help your child by working with them at home on this skill. The cut and paste is to review our letter of the week. (When your child is writing the Upper and Lower Case Bb- Please make sure they are starting at the top to write and not the bottom up- use the Letter Formation sheet I gave you at Parent Night as a reference)
Also you will find a new "B" book. Please read this with your child, keeping in mind those early reading strategies- pointing to the title, using our pointer finger and using the pictures for "clues" to solve the words on the page.
Thank you for your support at home- it will make a difference in your child's education and success,
Have a wonderful weekend!
Ms. O
