This week is all about the letter Aa. We have learned the correct way to write letter Aa in upper/lower case and have the the long and short Aa sounds. We brainstormed words that start with Aa. Our little ones came up with 10 words - Awesome job!!!
Our theme this week has been everything apples. We read the books A-Z Apples, The Apple Tree, and 10 Apples on Top. We had fun watching a short movie about Jonny Appleseed and sang the Johnny Appleseed Song. In Art we had fun sponge painting an appletree and making a Jonny Appleseed Craft. We will end our week making applesauce in class. Such a fun Letter Aa Week.
I am working on proper pencil grip. Many of our Preschoolers are holding their writing utensils incorrectly. We will continue to work on this skill. We are also working on our scissor skills. Please practice at home.
Picture Day went well today. Everyone looked so nice. I saw some great smiles today.
Special Notes:
*If you have not yet turned in your paperwork that was sent home the first week of school, please do so ASAP. I really need to get this turned into the office.
*Picture Day is on Wednesday, September 22. This is a dress up day.
*Please be sure to send a water bottle with your child each class day. We cannot continue to supply your child with a water bottle and they cannot go all day without water. I bought a case of water at the beginning of the year and only have 2 bottles left. We have started giving them cups of water when they are thirsty. However, this causes either myself or Mrs. J. to leave the classroom to get water many times throughout the day. Sending your child with their own filled water bottle saves time and money.
*Our Preschoolers are adjusting to our routine. I am very proud of them all. Great job Preschool!!!!
