Greetings Parents!
The school year is progressing quite well and we have all had a lot of fun getting to know each other. We are enjoying class and excited about moving into the next sections of our curriculum.
Mr. Clark has begun teaching both classes our Drops in the Bucket math sheets while continuing his calendar lessons. The Bears and Rockets are learning about pattern-building and numeral sequencing with Mr. Walker as well as manipulative-based story problems. Reading and Phonics continues in its success as we progress through our short vowel books and the stories of Dick and Jane. Additionally, our students are quickly grasping new Phonics concepts such as the magic "e" and various phonemes and blends (ee, oo, ou and fl, pl, th, sh). The kids are enjoying Spanish with Mr. Clark and are excited about the "All About Me" book they have begun to work on. In Science with Mr. Walker each class has completed a collage of Mammals vs. non-Mammals as the culmination of that section and are now beginning our section on Early Explorers (the use of sailing ships, the Mayflower and other early settlers, as well as setting up a colony).
Mr. Clark and Mr. Walker have thoroughly enjoyed having your students in class. This year promises to be a great one! As always, please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns. Be well!
*Reminder: Mr. Clark will soon begin a family tree project with both classes so please keep looking around for pictures of your student with his/her family.
