This week we spent time working on our theme of Christmas, and practicing our songs, speeches, and dances for the upcoming performance! We are all very excited for Christmas and we want to make sure we work hard to show everyone all the hard work we've put into our Christmas practices! For the theme of Christmas this week we talked about Santa clause, and all the things we are grateful for and the things we like about Christmas (and the gifts we hope Santa will bring us!) To help practice vocabulary and learn more about Christmas we watched a short cartoon about Franklin the Turtle donating a Christmas gift to less fortunate children. We also made a few crafts this week including Santa clauses made from tracing our hands and drawing and colouring in Santa. It was a lot of fun and we put them up around our classroom to help us get into the Christmas spirit! We also worked on phonics this week with the focus on the letter recognition of the letters r and q. We worked hard to add a few new words beginning with r and q to our vocabulary! So far we have added the words rainbow, queen, quiz, question, and we will continue practicing and adding more words next week! We practiced our letter recognition and spelling skills with a few activities including memory, go fish, and letter-bingo. We worked on math this week as well by practicing our number writing and counting skills with both worksheets and an activity where we use blocks to aid us in our adding skills. For writing this week on the letter n. We practiced writing little and big N's and learned new words that begin with n, as well as reinforcing our letter recognition of the letter n sound. We finished the week off with reading a book about apple picking to practice our listening, reading, and verbal skills. We recognized a number of our sight words while reading and added a few new words to our vocabulary while reading! We had a great week and we are excited for Christmas next week and I can't wait to see all their smiling faces on Monday morning!
