Week 15

This week, we learned how people around the world celebrate Christmas and other celebrations.  We read many books to help learn about each country's celebration and made a craft to help us remember each one.  We made poinsettias, wreaths, ornaments, and more.  We will send some crafts home this week and the rest will go home on Tuesday. 

The letter for this week was Kk.  We learned how to write it, the sound it made, and things that began with Kk.  Ask your child to tell you something that begins with Kk. Since we have a short week next week, we will review our letters and start with a new one after the holidays.

In Math, we are still working on patterning.  We have learned AB, ABB, AAB, AABB, and ABC patterns.  The students are recognizing patterns on their clothes and in the hallways.  They can create a variety of  patterns.  Ask your child to show you a pattern they know.  We have clapped, snapped, stomped, and patted many sound patterns too. Today we worked on physical movement patterns.  We did arm circles, touched our toes, and did jumping jack to make patterns.  See if your child can extend a pattern that you make.

Reminder:  I will not be at school on Friday since my son is graduating from A&M. 

I asked Mrs. Carroll to take some pictures of them in their PJ's tomorrow and at the K Polar Express parade and assembly.  I'll post them next week!
