April 29-May 03rd.

Dear Nursery Parents,

This week we are going to continue working with the alphabet. We will be working on recognizing the letters with their sound. The letter for this week we will be learner is the letter Cc. The vocabulary for this letter is: car, cat, cupcake, carrot, cookie

The following link has the vocabulary of the vocabulary of the letter c for you to practice at home.  https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1bFx4O74Zt07xAg9-3zdAOLUWlMTdrtEuLYPjn_VaugQ/edit?usp=sharing

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:

If You Give a Cat a Cupcake, by Laura Numeroff This is another title in the If You Give a Mouse a Cookie series. While this one feels a bit more contrived than others in the series, the pictures and story are still irresistible.  If you give a cat a cupcake, he’s going to want sprinkles to go with it… and on the story goes.

 

                       

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 4.

Our Nursery Rhyme this week is: “One One the Zoo is Fun”

This rhyme is more like a chart; it is hard to find it as a video, because it is not a video. You just follow the rhyme by reading along and you review the numbers. We will focus a lot on the rhyming for this chant.

We have talked to the students that we have started the hot season in Honduras. Please provide your child with a water bottle every day. Have them wear light clothes; they can bring a hat to protect from the sun, put sunscreen on their face and arms

In our Science unit we will be learning about Zoo Animals. We are going to be discussing the different types of zoo animals. Children will get the chance to name them and identify creatures that we can find in a zoo. Some of the vocabulary words we will be focusing are: elephant, tiger, lion, hippo, crocodile, zebra, gorilla, giraffe, snake. 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. (Thanks a lot to the parents who have brought books and materials that helps so much with the children´s learning).
