Kindergarten

Recap of November 1st - November 5th

Bible Study - We read the story of The Battle of Jericho from Joshua 6:1-20. God rescued His people from the Canaanites. God gave His people a new land. God saves HIs people from their enemies and blesses them.

Bible Words for the week: "Nothing will be impossible with God." Luke 1:37

ELA - We have been working on our phonics skills - associating letters with their sounds and blending sounds together to hear a new word. We are also really focusing on our penmanship. We reviewed the letter a and /a/ like in cat ,m, /m/ t, /t/, d, /d/, /, o, /o/ like in ox, c, /k/, i, and /i/ like in igloo, g /g/, n, /n/, and h, /h/ and practiced f, /f/ and s, /s/. Students wrote the letters, listened for their sounds, stretched and blended words that contain these letter sounds and use a chaining chart to create words with the letter sounds they know.

Students are focusing on isolating and identifying different sounds, pencil strokes that will help with handwriting, and practicing positional words like in front of, on top of, below, left, right, and behind.

Math - Students practiced counting by 10s by using hundreds charts and tens frames. Students reviewed numbers 1-20. Students practiced writing the numbers, showing the correct quantity for each number, showing the numbers on a tens frame and understanding that each one needs 2 tens frames.

Social Studies - Students are learning about colonial tradespeople like the miller and the baker.
