Welcome
to February! The school year is half way through now! Can you
believe it? And the kids are doing great! We just started sight
words in January. Sight words don't require the child to know the
entire alphabet with each sound that's made, because they aren't
“sounding out” the words. I will help them with learning to
sound things out too, but for right now, it's just to sight read. So
what I have been doing (and feel free to do this at home) is taken
five words and during circle time and recap time, I go through each
one. i.e. I hold up the word “in” and I say, “This is the word
'in'. What is it?” And they all respond, “in”. This is the
word 'up'. What is it? And they all respond, “up?”. I know it
sounds a little crazy, but I promise it works over time. It's a
technique I learned in a literacy group just out of college.
The
sight words introduced in January were: I, in, is, it, big, we, up
The
sight words I'm going to introduce in February are: and, look,
jump, go, Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter
*Valentine's
Day Party!
We
will be having a party on the 13th for Valentine's Day.
We will be exchanging valentines and placing them in envelopes we've
made.
Just
a thought:You may bring the valentines however you wish to, but we
have been working a lot on recognizing and writing our first names by
ourselves. Perhaps see if they can write their first name on all 9
valentines or even their first initial if it becomes overwhelming.
This
can be a great learning experience. :) Don't worry about filling
out the “To” section. It will make it easier for them if this
section is left blank and then they can play mailman and deliver the
valentines into all the envelopes without worrying whose goes where.
I
would love to have two volunteers for the Valentine Party. So if
you'd be willing to help out with a game or the sugar cookie
decorating portion of the party, please sign up on the bulletin
board. :) Thank you!
**Field
Trip to the Library
We
are going to tour the library and have a little discovery time
presentation on Feb. 18th at 10:30 for the A.M. group and 1:30 for the P.M. at the Southwest Branch
where we did the Christmas Program. Any moms and siblings are
welcome to join us. I will need at least 2 drivers. So if you'd be
willing to drive, please sign up on the bulletin board. It's free
and will be fun! We will have normal preschool hours. If cannot
join us, please be sure to leave a booster seat/car seat so I can
transport your child safely. Thank you!
Mid-Year
Assessments
I
want to see what has been learned since I met with your child back in
July/August. To do this, I would like to schedule mid year
assessments. I plan to do these 20 minutes prior to preschool
starting on T/W/TH . I will also have some other slots available,
like on Mondays and Fridays. Please pick a time and come on over!
Thanks
for helping make this preschool year great!
Have
a lovely February!
Miss
SueZan
