We had another great week talking about the special families that God gave us! We also worked hard learning the letter “Cc”. The show and tell items helped reinforce the sound “c” makes.  Thank you for helping your child select an item; it is a proud moment when they get to share…and Show and Tell builds confidence, vocabulary, and other language skills!

Next week, we will enjoy learning about apples.  The children will taste a variety of apples, make a class graph of favorites, and help make applesauce.  How fun!  Please send 2 apples with your child at the beginning of the week.  We appreciate your help in making this week tasty and educational!

Please note the information regarding school pictures in the “Important Information” section below.

• Bible Verse: “For nothing is impossible with God.”  Luke 1:37 (We will practice this verse for two weeks.  Practice at home too!)
• Bible Story:  Abraham and Lot
• Reading/Phonemic Awareness: We will introduce the letter “Aa” and the short vowel sound that /a/makes (think alligator, apple). We will continue to learn that words have syllables.
• Math:  #3, interpreting data on a graph
• Unit:  Apples
• Show and Tell: Bring 2 apples (any variety).
