What’s New in KG1A and KG1B?

with Miss Hailey and Miss Sara

Our English Theme was: My Neighborhood

We talked about places we find in our neighborhood. We constructed buildings in our neighborhood out of shapes that we cut

out. In Mathematics: We learned some size words: big, small, tall,

short. We learned about the heart shape. We made a neighborhood out of different shapes.

We read: Communities by Gail Saunders- Smith

On Our Street by Yanitzia Canetti The Great Shape Hunt by Richard Haynes

In English: We learned about the letter T, t. We learned to read the word ‘went’. We drew and wrote about

where we like to go in our English Journal.

Next week we are reviewing all taught letter sounds and sight words.

We sang: Square House

Days of the week We visited Pizza Express where we shown how pizzas are made.We then made our own pizza, which we baked and ate. Afterwards we had ice cream. After a very busy morning we came back

to school tired but with full tummies.

Every week a child from each class will be chosen to be ‘The Star Of The Week’. The

teachers will decide on which child has shown that they deserve recognition. Obviously, there

are many children who could get star of the week every week. We always recognize them and praise them for their exemplary behavior.

In time every child will receive a certificate.

Tips To Help At Home: Sing the song of the week at home.

Practice identifying initial sounds of words at home.

Support your child in writing their name.

In preparation for next weeks topic ‘JOBS’ please explain to your child what you do

for a living.

Reminders:!We are on holiday from Sunday the 1st of February to Thursday the 5th of February. Children are to be back at school on Sunday the 8th of February.

Have a restful week with your family. Thank you!
