Each week the kids participate in six different workshops. These activities reinforce concepts from our curriculum, thematic units, arts, and cooperative learning. Here's a peek of what we did this week.
The /M/ and /N/ sounds can be confusing. To practice, we sorted /M/ and /N/ pictures and then labeled them if time permitted. Everyone did great at this activity!
To get ready for our trip to the Zoo, we made Zoo portraits! Everyone chose an animal to become and then got creative with construction paper, glue, scissors, and yarn. The portraits are part of a SK bulletin board. It's so super cute!
We finally have a "green word" this week. Green words are HFW that can be sounded out. Our new words this week are big, small, have, and five. The new take-home book is A Farm. After reading the book, the kids sorted the HFW by how many letters in each word. This sheet has a song cooresponding to words with 2, 3, 4, and 5 letters. If your child likes to sing, this is a great way to practice the words.
The kids practiced matching upper and lower case letters using letter stamps. This workshop took a lot of concentration!
We are writing sentences! Making spaces between words can be difficult for new writers. In come the Space People! Our Space People help us write and form the perfect sized spaces between words in a sentence.
