Classroom News We have had a very fun week in kindergarten! We learned a lot about the day and night sky, our moon, and the sun! We also learned all about the letter/sound Vv and the sight word said. We will continue to use our new letters for building words. Continue to practice letters and sounds each night if your child is having difficulty. Please be reading with your child each night! (Even if it’s simply going over the finished work they brought home from school.) Every little bit helps!

Literacy Tip: Keep a look out for color WORDS and sight words said, for, is, to, and, he, you, go, & the. Math Tip: Practice counting to 80 and going over numbers 0-20 any chance you get!

What We’re Learning Reading: Next week, we will be studying the letter Ww /w/. We will discuss the letter sound and the letter formation. We will use the sound to blend words and make new words. We will also learn the sight word-are. Math: We will wrap up working on 2D shapes and begin our unit on counting to 100.

Writing: We will practice the correct way to write numbers 0-20, our names with only the first letter capitalized, and writing sentences in our journal.

How to write our letters correctly: 

Always start writing letters from the top!



Here is what we say while we are writing our letters…

 V= “sliding, sliding”  v= “slide, slide”  W= “sliding, climbing. sliding, climbing”

 W=”slide, climb, slide, climb”

 More letters to come!

Science/Social Studies: Next week we will be learning about teeth. We will discuss things we can do to keep our teeth healthy, good foods for our teeth and how to brush!
