Homework:
I would encourage the parents to please work with their kids to recognize the letters that we have done so far.
For the Annual day, we will showcase all that we have learned in class. My thought is that every kid will hold a letter and say it along with a word starting with that letter. We will also say the rhyme – Machli jal ki hai Rani.
