10:00 to sign in at the office. Then come to the cafeteria for our
program. Our program will begin at 10:00! Afterwards, the
children will have a feast in the café, as well. If you are able, please
join your child for this special time.
Theme: Fall and Thanksgiving!
Reading: This week we will continue to enjoy fall and Thanksgiving
stories! We will identify characters, setting, and problem. We will
retell using story arcs. We will continue to utilize the cognitive skill of
mental imaging while listening to stories. This skill will help us add
details to our writing!
Writing: This week we will make literacy connections to Thanksgiving
stories while using these stories as a basis for our own individual book
making/writing. The children will focus on use of capitals, periods, and
appropriate spacing as we write about Pilgrims, Native American, and
traditions! We will continue to add details to make our writing more
interesting. We will also use letter sound knowledge to make lists.
For example, we will make a list of what we want to eat on Thanksgiving!
