Building Blocks Preschool

As I go thru each week and type in my thoughts in what the kids have learned I feel like I'm starting to repeat myself too much so I'm thinking I won't post as much. A lot of teaching is repetitious learning.  We have a new sight word besides "look" and that is "the". We have
learned 3 more shapes; hexagon, octagon and parellagram. We are still learning our alphabet songs that go with each letter, identifying letters and their sounds, we are learning about rhyming words and just finished learning what opposites are.  I keep them on their toes in the classroom and in general they are making sweet friendships.  In the next several weeks the kids will be making pumpkin pies and the fun part is giving them the whip cream spray cans!

Advice:  make sure your child knows how to write his/her name
Write down the alphabet on pieces of paper and mix the papers up. Ask your child to tell you the letter, it's sound and a word that starts with that letter.
