This Week In Class:

Reading: Our new story is called “We Are So Proud” and our amazing words are: proud, cooperation, float, preparation, creation, guide.  We will be talking about setting and reviewing character.  We will also be responding to the literature selection as a large group.
Phonics: We have been practicing rhyming and non- rhyming pairs along with discussing rhyming families.  We will also introduce letters Ff-Nn and review Aa-Ee.  We practice sight words daily as well using them in sentences and with the flash cards.
Math: Our new topic is Topic 15, Position and Location of shapes.  The vocabulary we will be using is: inside/outside, above/below, left/right.  We will also continue to review the 2D shapes of square, triangle, rectangle, circle, hexagon, and comparing their sides and angles.
