Week of April 14, 2008







We read our weekly poem, In the Zoo. Our new popcorn word was “at. We completed our Zz books and practiced writing the letter “Zz”. We started working on our zoo theme by reading books about zoo animals and working on zoo animal projects.
In math we worked with the penny, nickel and dime. For practice review the coin names and values. Put a small handful of coins on the table and help your child to count the coins to see how much money there is on the table. I am sending home the game called The Penny/Nickel Exchange Game for homework. Keep the game boards at home to continue playing and learning about the value of coins.
