This week we will be learning about the letter Uu. Today we learned how to write Uu correctly in upper/lower case, we learned the soft Uu sound, and learned the "sign" for Uu. Our Board Story was about Uncle Upton being under his umbrella that was upside down. Our Board Words this week are umpire, uniforms, underwear, and umbrella. We had a hard time thinking of Uu words but we added the word UP. We will be doing activities and focusing on the words UNDER and UP this week. Today we did a paper that helped us to learn positions - under and over. We also had fun in Science. We planted seeds "under" the soil and learned that seeds need water, soil, sun, and air to grow. It will fun to take care of our little seeds and watch them grow over the next few weeks. Our Circle Time story was Umbrella Bird's Umbrella by Heather Feldman.
