We have been back in school for a week and the students have dived right back into our routine and have been very busy. The students have really been enjoying the current Superkids book, Icky. Icky likes watching and making TV shows. The front cover of the student books has been cut so that the kids can pull strips through and pretend that each picture is a different TV channel. The students will also be drawing their own TV show and writing a description for it.
We are working hard on blending sounds together and writing words that we hear. The students are also beginning to work on writing sentences. We are discussing how there needs to be a space between words and that the first word is capitalized and a period goes at the end of a sentence.
In math the kindergarteners have begun using a number line to help order numbers. They are also working on adding one or two more or taking one or two away. The students draw pictures to show this.
Continue to practice with your child at home. When the Superkid books come home with your child make sure you go through the book with your child. This is a great way for the students to show you what they are learning and great extra practice on reading the words in the book as well as comprehension practice when they can retell some of the stories that are in the books now.
