PTA was great! Thanks!!!

Hi Parents!!!

Thank you very much for finding time to come to school to talk about your child's progress; it makes me feel very rewarding to be their Teacher!

Good News!!! We have a new friend in Penguin class; her name is Emily. Emily is 4 years old, she is also Albert's friend! Welcome to Penguin Class Emily! She is adjusting well in Penguin class, she is sometimes a little shy!

We had a very busy week this week... We are reading 'Big Monkey, Little Monkey' for reading class. Most of the class can follow the story with their fingers. We have been practicing a lot of phonograms; we just learned -ig this week and we also reviewing the last group( -an, -at, -ap). In Phonics, we are learning the letter 'Gg.' We learn how to identify the letter 'Gg,' learn how to write the letter, learn new vocabulary words and review them! In Math, we are learning how to write numbers; 1, 2 and 3. Writing the numbers were easier than writing the letter 'Gg,' hehehehe.

We are learning about Thanksgiving this week; just a few new vocabulary words for that theme. We are learning about Indians/Native Americans and made a teepee as a craft!

We also learned a new rhyme... 'Pat-a-cake' (feel free to sing it w/your kids!!)
Pat-a-cake, Pat-a-cake, Baker's Man
Bake me a cake as fast as you can,
Pat it, Prick it, Mark it w/a (first initial of child's name),
Put it in the oven for child's name and me.

Have a great weekend,
Teacher Leanne
