What is your child learning in Math?

We have just completed  Saxon lessons 21-30 We did the following:

  • practiced putting # cards 1-5 in order 
  • wrtiting the #'s 3 and 4
  • creating and reading an AB color pattern
  • naming the days of the week 

What is your child doing in Language Arts?

We are at the end of our The Three Bears unit

  • We have listened to the tale of The Three Bears and have read many versions of the classic story
  • We are learning to compare the size of objects and what words to use to describe them.
  • We have sorted items according to size.
  • We are learning the concept of what over means.

Learning our letters

  • As I am sure you know from your child we are working on different letters each week.
  • This week we will work on the letter Hh
  • We continue to review A-G as well.
We will be celebrating the 50th day of school on Thursday, your child may dress up for the occasion 50's style if they wish.  

We will be taking a trip to Walker Park on Friday, to clean up and have some fun! CCS has adopted Walker Park and this will be our first clean-up outing.  We will leave the school around 9am.
  
Everyone is doing great!  Ask your child to tell you the months of the year and the days of the week ; they are very proud of themselves for mastering both.  Thank you for sharing your children with me.  They are a joy.

Blessings, Katie Hermann
