Dear Nursery Parents,
This week we are
going to start working with the alphabet. We will be working on recognizing the
letters with their sound. The first one we will be working with is the
letter Aa. The vocabulary for this letter is: apple, ant,
alligator, astronaut, ambulance.
If you have any items
at home that begin with this letter, 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. The kids get excited to bring things from
home.
Some of the books we are going to be reading this week are the following:
The author tells the
tale of a little boy who is sure that there is an alligator under his bed.
Getting no sympathy from his parents who ``never saw it,'' he forms a plan of
attack. He leaves a trail of food from his bed through the house to the garage
door. He then follows behind as the alligator gobbles up the goodies, fresh
vegetables, fruit, and even ``the last piece of pie,'' making its way to the
garage. The boy then locks the door.
Two young sisters
watch in fascination as their apple tree changes, from bare in winter to
bursting with pink blossoms in spring, and as robins build a nest. When autumn
comes, the small green apples have grown big enough for picking and for pie!
The words we are going to be discussing from this book are: branch, blossoms,
chirp, brim, guarding and delicious.
In math, will
continue working with numbers. We will work on how to represent and recognize
numbers using tally marks, ten frames, name of the number, one-to-one
correspondence. This week we will be working with number 2.
Our Nursery Rhyme this week
is: “Baby Beluga”
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
our Science unit we will be learning about Ocean Animals. We
are going to be discussing the different types of ocean animals. Children will
get the chance to name them and identify creatures that live under the sea.
Some of the vocabulary words we will be focusing are: shark, whale,
jellyfish, crab, clown fish, dolphin, octopus, sea horse, turtle, stingray. 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.
