Our letter of the week is "s". We practiced printing this tricky letter with our magical finger! Our word of the week is "is". We sounded it out by putting the letter sounds together. This is a tricky task to say the sounds and try and put them together. Please practice this with yout child if your child is in sk. We will be working on this all year. Some of the children are sounding words out on their own and are eager to attempt new words.
On Wednesday, your child will be receiving their Initial Observation. Thursday is parent -teacher interviews. If you have not signed up for a time, please do so soon. Mrs. T and I are very excited to discuss your child's progress thus far.
Today, we also worked on placing numbers in order. The children worked together and were able to place numbers 1-40 in the correct order. We often play a "what comes before/after" game in the morning. This is a quick and fun game to play with your child and is really beneficial for them. (What comes after 7? ) For our jk students, we go up to 5. Try going past 10 if your child is in sk.
On Tuesday, November 21, 2017 from 7:00 pm-8:00 pm, St. Gabriel will be hosting an informative session on Social Emotional Learning (SEL).
