 Today, I will reread parts of Huggapotamus so the children can answer 'text-dependent' questions such as these: 
     ~Albert is described as "too rough." What details from the text support this 
             description?       
         ~On page 23, what clues do the pictures give us that the words do not?      
         ~Why did Albert like to give hugs so much? 
  Kindermath: Count to 5 and Back
While it may seem like an easy concept, but children need to accurately count orally, coun objects, and identify the missing number when counting forward and back. Again, we are building the foundational skills for counting and cardinality.
What better way to teach this than to work with the story, Five Little Monkeys Jumping on the Bed!

                                                             
                                                                     Phy Ed today!
                      Project: "I Like to _____ in the leaves."

It's already our 10th day of school! To celebrate, the kids will meet Zero the Hero, our puppet friend who loves the number 0 and only comes to visit every 10th day of school.

~When returning the Wednesday envelope, please fold it in half and place it in their green round trip folder. Thanks!
