Tuesday, October 4

             Letter/Sound Focus: Oo

Handwriting: Oo 
 KinderLiteracy
Using the story, A Tree for All Seasons, the kids will answer simple recall questions such as: What is the job of an author/illustrator? Is this a fiction or nonfiction book? What is a fact we learned about the seasons? We will clarify the vocabulary words within the story (bare, cozy, bud, collect, chilly).

KinderMath: Sort By More than One Attribute
The lesson begins with reading, The Button Box by Margarette Reid. I will ask their thoughts on how the buttons are being sorted (size, color, shape, style, etc.) Then we will look at a pile of attribute buttons and talk about how they think we should sort them. More than likely, the kids will focus on color so I will get them to think past that. (Sort by shape, button hole amount, size, etc.) 
~Overall, I am seeing improvement with writing numbers 0-5!

~My apologies for not getting the daily update to you yesterday! I forgot to press "Publish"...Oops.
