Next week we will learn, "Who are the Indians?" We will paint with sand paint, make indian hats, make Thanksgiving placemats, and Indian Tepees.

In Math, we will continue to explore numbers 1-5. We will practice countning to five, identifying numbers to five, and counting sets to five.

In Phonics, we will continue to work on identifying letters and letter sounds. We will learn the poem, "Blue bird, blue bird." We will focus on matching uppercase and lowercase letters.


Next week is a busy and fun week. We look forward to seeing you at the Kindergarten Thanksgiving Feast on Wednesday and the Kindergarten Thanksgiving Play on Friday. Have a great weekend!!
