Dear Parents,


This week we will begin working and learning about the star. The vocabulary words we are going to be focusing on are: starfish, magic wand, starfruit, badge

If you have any items at home that are with the shape of a star, 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. 26th. The kids get excited to bring things from home.


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

Our Nursery Rhyme this week is: “Twinkle Twinkle, Little Star”
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.

Children will get the chance to name them and know some of these animals. Some of the vocabulary words we will be focusing are: cow, pig, horse, duck, chicken, hen, roaster, farmer, barn, cat, dog.
