WORK THIS WEEK…
We are starting the unit: Friendship. In this unit we will be learning how
to be a good friend and ways we can help others. This will be incorporated
into Valentine’s Day.
Also, this week we are working on the identification, sound, and objects that
start with the letter S.
The class will be reading various Friendship and Valentine stories. Students
will draw a picture of what they think being a friend would look like.
The children will make Valentine bags to collect their valentines from their
friends.
Try at Home:
Read lots of stories to your child about being a good friend and let them
tell you ways the characters were and were not being a good friend. Try the
book: How to Be a Friend: A Guide to Making Friends and Keeping Them.
Remember the library is free and a WONDERFUL place to spend quality time with
your child!
Try getting a little silly and role play how to be and not to be a good
friend. You will have a great time watching your child role play!
We are in need of Paper Towels and coffee filters. Please send as many as you
can these are things that we use daily in our class.
