Weeks 11 & 12

Sorry parents- just a bit off. Last week Tuesday the 11th we talked about good manners and practiced our place setting- hopefully, your little one is helping to set the table. On Wednesday the 12th we focused all on books and reading. And that is what we did- READ!! I took them into our "Brandon family library" and chose the books they wanted to read and look at. Thursday the 13th we practiced the number four. We talked about squares and rectangles and their sides we were also reviewing our letters that we have learned so far. Friday night the 14th was our Literacy night. I loved having you all over to have a pajama party- thanks to Kevin Cullimore for coming in his pjs :) Sorry again for the heat of the hot chocolate- many a tongue was burned- we have learned from our mistakes.
This week- Tuesday the 18th we talked about the color brown- we played with Mr. Potato head and our brown playdough. We also had a brown bag activity where we pulled things out of a brown bag. Lastly we practiced the letter "H".
Wednesday the 19th we talked about healthy habits- washing our hands, taking baths, eating healthy foods, covering our mouths when we cough or sneeze and wearing a seatbelt. Thursday the 20th we are going to be talking about squares. Practicing tracing them and finding them in the world around us.
We have also been working on Brown turkey, brown turkey book for thanksgiving.
