Religion
This week we will begin Chapter 5: God Made My Church Family. We will discover how God welcomes us into the Church. We will talk about how we are welcomed into the Church through baptism, and even take a visit down to our own Church at St. Damian to pray together. Please continue to practice the Angel of God prayer and the Our Father. |
Literacy/Language
This week we will begin to learn about transportation! Our read alouds will help us to learn about the different types of transportation and where we use each of them (land,air,water). Our letters this week will be Oo and Pp. We will learn how to write these letters and what sounds they make. We are continuing our sight words this week with "for". Please practice these at home and ask your child to sing you one of our color songs! |

Math
In math this week, we will be be working on the number 12. We will not only be practicing how to write each number, but also working on number concepts. We will continue practicing how to count to 50! We will also learn about the shape octagon. We will continue to review and practice math concepts learn the past 8 weeks. |
Science/Concept
Our concept this week is all about learning about pumpkins. We will read our Scholastic Let's Find Out magazine about this topic, talk about all of the things we can do with pumpkins, and end our week with a trip to the pumpkin patch and carving our own pumpkin!! We are definitely going to have a lot of fun! |

Centers
Our centers this week will consist of baby dolls, STEM building materials, houses/people, Legos, painting, and play doh. We will be making some fun fall crafts! Be sure to check them out when you have a chance! |
REMEMBER:
Homework is sent home on Thursday/Friday of each week and is to be completed and turned in by the NEXT Friday at the latest! USE PENCIL to complete the homework, as this is what we use in class for tracing activities. Practice, practice, practice is the best way to learn! Please make sure you are checking your child's folder EACH NIGHT for important information from myself or the office! |
