Dear Parents, 

Let’s learn about shapes! We will continue learning about the shape of square.  Vocabulary words we are going to be focusing on are: napkin, dice, box, block, and cracker.

   

Children love to play with toys they bring from home, so if at home you have toys related to what the kids are learning, we will appreciate your help by sending them over. They will be returned on Friday.

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

“When I grow”

“Career day”

Nursery rhymes:

“This old man” “what color is it?” “ABC song: Alphabet train”  Here are the links:

In Social Studies we will continue the unit about Community helpers. We are going to be discussing the different types of community helpers. Children will get the chance to name them and learn what they do. The vocabulary words we will be focusing are: Chef, doctor, vet, policeman firefighter, nurse teacher, and farmer. 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.

And as it was told last week: To close our Community Helpers Unit we are planning on a Show and Tell Presentation that will be on Friday, february 01. 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.
