F is for Fall...

...and Foamy shaving cream!

    

For the week of November 2 - 6

Reading: Identifying letter Ff and it's sound with our story Friendly Frog.  Sequencing story cards after reading Hattie and the Fox.  Sharing our new classbook: If I had a Million Da,Da, Dollars.  Please watch for our books in your child's folder.  When it is your child's turn, have your child focus on following the words left to right as you read our book together, sign our comment page, and return next day. 

Math:  Counting and identifying #5.  Understanding "first, next, last" as we sequence Hattie and the Fox story.  Counting Farm Animals and placing them correctly in our take home Farm Animals book.  Calendar time is completed daily as we start our day.  We focus on identifying each number and recognizing our "AABB" pattern of colors in our numbers on the November calendar.  Graphing is incorporated daily in our weather watching.  Identifying how many days of specific weather types are discussed and compared to find out which weather type has more. 

Language Arts:  Identifying words that begin with F - feathers, foam, feet, farm during center time.  Writing letter Ff.  Continue practicing to identify and write letters Aa-Ee and 1-4 at home.  Please practice writing first names also at home the big K4 way.  Using capital only for the first letter and lowercase for the rest.

Religion:  This week and next week we will learn about "Little Things" by introducing an angel named Cherub Wings.  This children's series follows the high jinks of a spirited angel named Cherub Wings, who's been commissioned by God to present a variety show that will help kids build their faith.  Cherub wants to share heaven with children everywhere with a little help from Jesus himself, resulting in a program of visualized prayers and captivating songs. We will discover that little acts of kindness go a long way no matter how big or small you are.  We will also continue to learn our K4 Daily Prayer and participate in The Sign of the Cross and Meal prayer at snack time daily.  

Social Studies: Identifying family members as we draw our own family pictures.  Weekly Reader about Fire Safety.  Continuing to make good choices for appropriate behavior.  Our behavior management chart has really helped the children make good choices.  They are very attentive at group time and are displaying acts of kindness, sharing, and helping others.  It's been wonderful to watch!  :)

Science:  Recognizing the changes in the weather outside as Fall continues.  

Art:  Making Turkeys with tissue paper and practicing our cutting skills some more as we cut out circles.  Placing sticky foam pieces on feet.  Glueing feathers on letter F.

4th grade buddy activity:  Through out the week, we will be learning to read an emergent reader booklet At the Farm.  We will read our books to our 4th grade buddy then color it appropriately to add details. 

 

  

Rest timeIt seems that the K4's who have a blanket and book in their sleeping bags settle down for nap a little easier than the others.  As the weather cools, a blanket or beach towel would be nice to cuddle.

 ? Mystery Bag:  Please have your child place 2 small objects in the Mystery Bag to bring to school when it is their turn.  Thank you for thinking of clues with your child!

  Snack Reminder:  Please remember to send a snack every day for your child with a napkin.  Please keep it in the same location in your child's backpack (separate from lunch bag) for easy access.  Thank you!

I believe…

• that all children are individuals who learn in their own way and at their own pace

• that play is the most important process through which young children learn

• that children learn best through educational experiences that are developmentally appropriate

• that parents are a vital part of the learning process

• children learn from each other as well as from role models
