What a fun week we had in Kindergarten! The last few days we started doing a lot of learning about Thanksgiving. Ask your child about Thanksgiving…where the Pilgrims came from? Why they wanted to leave England? How they got to America? What the Pilgrims and Native Americans wore for clothing and the houses they lived in…Wow, we have learned so much! We started making a Thanksgiving Journal/Book. They will be bringing it home on Wednesday. I encourage them to bring it with to Thanksgiving and read the story to some family members. Next week we will continue to with more Thanksgiving Activities. We are starting to learn about sentence structure. With our Thanksgiving learning, we are writing many sentences. All of our sentences should have an upper case letter to start, finger spaces, and periods.
The letter a was studied the last two weeks. Our biggest challenge was learning that a can say two sounds, long a and short a. Ask your child!
I must end the post with, I have such a great class! I’m so Thankful your child is in this classroom.
Have a great weekend!
