Week of December 3, 2007

We have been working on the letter “Nn” this week. Our poem for the week was November. We practiced printing the capital and lowercase Nn and completed My Nn Book. Our new popcorn word is “is”. We used magnetic letters to make words and used them in a sentence.
In math, we are learning how to copy and extend different kind of patterns. We worked on the AB, AAB and ABB patterns using unifix cubes and gluing squares to make the patterns on paper and we made chains following a pattern.
A Peek at Next Week…

Holiday Parties
Our “Holiday Party” will be held on Friday, Dec. 21st from 10:15-11:15 for the morning class and from 2:00-3:00 for the afternoon class.
The kindergarten teachers have decided to have the children bring in candies/trinkets (such as candy canes, stickers, pencils, etc.) for the class instead of purchasing a gift for a gift exchange.
In case you want to do some shopping this weekend, there are 17 students in the A.M. class and 16 students in the P.M. class. You may send in your candies/trinkets anytime during the week of December 17th. He/she will pass them out the day of the party. Each child will need to bring in that week a Christmas decorated gift bag with their name on it to hold all their goodies
