Kindergarten

Recap of January 5th - January 7th

Bible Study - We read the story of the Wise Men visiting Jesus. Students were excited to share what they already knew about the story because of our Christmas Program.

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. Students practiced letter u and the /u/ as in under and the letter r and /r/. 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/, h, /h/ , f, /f/, s, /s/, v, /v/, z, /z/, e and /e/ like in ten. 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 reviewed graphing skills and practiced number writing. We are really focusing on making sure commonly reversed numbers are facing the right way.
