Dear parents:

For phonics class, I introduced the letter “S”, “s”, and the related words such as snake, six, sun, suitcase, sandwich, and star.

For social studies class, we started a new unit on “Hobbies”. We learned many different hobbies that people do when they have free time such as playing cards, jogging, playing with trains, talking o

n the phone, doing exercise…and so on.

For motor skills class, we

learned

a new rhyme called “Humpty Dumpy”.

“Humpty Dumpy sat on a wall.”

“Humpty Dumpy had a great fall.”

"All the kings’ horses and all the king's men couldn’t put

him together again!” Later on, they did a scissor cutting worksheet.The kids had to figure out on their own how to put “Humpty Dumpy” “together again!”

Individual comments:

Alex was able to stay in his seat for a longer period of time. He tries to put down/up his pants while he goes to the bathroom. If he is in a hurry to the bathroom then he might cry. He was so excited to have his first try to use scissors this week.

Chloe said she likes to talk to her grandparents on the phone when she has free time. Chloe was happy to see Dora and Ivy on Monday. She even told them

that they are her best friends.

Madi was eager to learn the new sound of the letter “S” this week. She loves snakes and squirrels.

Dora was very kind. We went to the park on Wednesday. Alex was chasing a squirrel he saw in a tree. He accidentally fell; Dora picked him up and took care of him.

Mia finally returned to school after a stomach flu. She was so happy to come back and see her friends again.

Sherri grasped on some math logic so quickly. This week we worked on sequencing patterns and on shapes, instead of colors.

Ellie wore her new shiny dressy shoes on Wednesday but she cut herself.She peed in her sleeping bag and also on her tights.

Ivy was very emotional this week. She refused to go to Mr. B’s class for phonics on Monday. I gave her a little break because I don’t like to force her, especially since she was physical still ill. Wednesday, I told her that she must to go Mr. B’s, because she is already grown up and has to become a big girl. She cried and told me that she doesn’t want to go. I brought her into the classroom and calmed her down.

Henry enjoyed our field trip so much, especially the chance he had to see Taiwanese domestic frogs at a close distance. During lunch time, he opened his bag and shared all his food with his friends.
