We had a great day together! I had lots of sleepy kids this morning from the Royals game last night, but they worked hard! We worked in clubs today reviewing lots of important skills. We practiced writing our spelling words with stamps and we re-visited consonants and vowels. We played a CVC ("consonant, vowel, consonant")roll game and we made silly words. Ask your child to tell you one of their silly words that they invented. We did some comparing and contrasting of the story of The Three Little Pigs. We listened to 3 different versions and compared the similarities and differences of them all.
In math we continued to write equations and work with our 10-frames. Please continue to help your child with the automaticity of basic addition and subtraction facts up to 10. Daily practice, flashcards and the games on this blog page help reinforce these important skills!
We are learning about the deserts of Africa this week. We have studied lions and hippos. Ask your child to tell you something about these desert dwelling creatures. Check out the link on our blog under Art, Science and Social Studies. There are some great National Geographic Kids links to these cool desert creatures! We will be on the lookout for all of them on our field trip October 6! Be sure to send your permission slip back asap!
Don't forget that tomorrow is Movie Night! We will be showing "Rio" from 6-9 pm. Cost is $10 a child or $15 per family. Hope you can make it!
