Have your children been pointing out all the Ss around your home? I hope so. They were reading environmental print {snack wrappers, newspaper articles, and even candy wrappers} to find the capital and lowercase Ss. As you can see from the pictures below we got our hands messy with shaving cream to practice making Ss. They loved it! We read the following books Smash Crash , Sylvie, and Something Special. We looked and listened for the S sounds and letters. We discussed how each of these books had different characters {trucks, a flamingo, and raccoons}. We are really working hard to make the letter/sound connection. I encourage you to help your child practice this skill. {Example: A says "aaa."}
Making our names with magnetic letters
Most of the children had a chance to work on our computers for the first time this week.
Dr. Merkel came in and read aloud to our class. He read the book A Fine, Fine School.
