This week our Resources are: Tuesday~MEDIA (Kindergarteners do not bring their Media Books home. They stay in the classroom and become one of our Reading Stations.), Wednesday~MUSIC and Friday~ART. Also, Friday is Sports Day. I can't wait to see what the students wear to support their favorite sport or team! :) This week Annalysia will bring in the Fun Friday Snack.
Math:
We are finishing up our last District Mathematical Practice Lesson! The students have been great listening to all them and we have even made a few entries in our Math Journals. :) Tuesday we will begin Module 1 by discussing two objects that are exactly the same or NOT exactly the same. Then we will work into classifying objects into groups by size, shape, color, etc. We will work to complete a Problem Set paper daily and on the back there will be a quick Home Learning (this is how our district refers to Homework.) I ask that you review the Problem Set with your child and then complete the Home Learning.
Even with all these lessons... we will practice counting to 100, recognizing numbers to 10 and writing numbers on our white boards.

Here is the Youtube Video we listen to for number writing practice:
Reading:
We are continuing our Nursery Rhymes Module. The students continue to do great listening to the Nursery Rhymes! They all really enjoy echoing the lines after me and they laugh at the silly pictures... Everyone loved Little Miss Muffet getting frightened and the Five Little Pigs Go to Market. :) Well this week we will have a few Nursery Rhymes and then a couple short stories. Click on the titles to enjoy the stories at home with your child: The Lion and the Mouse, The Dog and His Reflection & The Hare and the Tortoise.
We are also beginning our Saxon Phonics Lessons. We will focus on letter L for approximately four days by discussing the sound, letter formation, how it is a consonant and that it can be found as the initial sound and also as an ending sound in words. The we will begin the instruction for letter O by discussing how it is a vowel and that vowels have two sounds~ long and short. Similar to Math, most days we will complete a Worksheet and the back of them will have a Home Learning. Please review the papers with your child.
As if this isn't enough... we also have four new sight words for this week: black, white, can and like. (A few parents have questioned why their children are not completing the Color Papers in class. Please know your children are working non-stop all day! They are in Lessons, in Centers, on the Computers and right now testing with me 1-on-1. So they may not receive the full amount of time to work on the color paper because they are being pulled.)
Here is the slideshow for the sight words:
Writing:
We finally finished our Writing Ideas Poster!! I'll have to take a picture of it when I get to school and then I'll add it to this post. This week we are going to work on labeling pictures. I have chosen the different parts of a salad and animals as the two topics we will focus on in the lessons. Both pictures will have characters and a setting. At home have your child practice drawing and labeling things they like. Examples of this could be their family, their toys, even their favorite foods!:) The practice will strengthen their fine motor skills and help them notice more details in the items they draw.
Science:
This is the first week we actually have time for a Science Block. :) Normally I integrate it when I can, but this week we have time!! We will be focusing on the Sense of Touch and words we can use to describe the things we touch. We will be watching a few videos and going outside on a Nature Walk to touch a few items.

This is one of my favorite Mr. R videos!! It is the slowest one, but the five senses videos are great. Hope you enjoy it!
