Week of Feb. 1-5

Dear Parents,
This week we will begin working and learning about the diamond. The vocabulary words we are going to be focusing on are: kite, ring, traffic sign

If you have any items at home that are with the shape of a diamond, send them over with your child and we will be discussing them in class, we will display them on a table and we will return them back on Friday, Feb. 5^th. The kids get excited to bring things from home.

We are also going to be comparing big and small objects.

Some of the stories that we will be reading this week are:

Our Nursery Rhyme this week is: “If you’re happy and you know it”

I am attaching you the link of the video of this song we will be learning throughout the week. We will learn two versions of this nursery rhyme. Just a little tip to have fun at home listening and acting out our song.

In Social Studies we will continue the unit about Friendship and Feelings. We are going to be discussing the different types of feelings. Children will get the chance to name them and know how to be a good friend and learn the words to express their feelings.. Some of the vocabulary words we will be focusing are: love, friends, love, hug, valentine’s, happy, sad, angry, scared, surprised, shy, worried. If you have any books or posters, ideas or any other material that you would like to share with us it would be greatly appreciated.

To close our Community Helpers Unit we are planning on a Show and Tell Presentation that will be on Friday, February 5. Each child will be assigned with an occupation, they will have to answer the following questions. "What do I do?" "How do I transport?" "What tools do I use?" "Where do I work?" Children should come dressed as the community helper that they have been assinged. We are NOT demanding an expensive or fancy suit, it is up to you how and what you are going to use. Children should also bring a poster illustrating the questions, this will be a help while they present.
