Room 15, Ms. Brooke K.

They did it!!! They are on their way to Kindergarten!!!  This week was filled with activities that allowed me to complete the final assessments, we worked on our PreK shirts, and we had graduation practice.  It was such a busy week.  The children have worked so hard this week.  We finished up our Geography books.  We discussed the places your child lives: the planet, the continent, the country, the State, the city, the street, and the house numbers.  There is a fun song we sing to remember you our address.  It is to the tune of "do you know the muffin man?"

I have jury duty on Monday (say a prayer they don't want me :)) End of the Year Party will be next week, please read the info below. Next week, we will work on a memorybook and play games.

No Show and Share.

Please review and practice letter and numbers at home.

 

Many children have complained that it is very cold inside.  I suggust bringing a sweater or jacket for them to wear if they get cold.  

• Please have your child wear the White PreK Grad shirt they made (it was in their graduation bag).
• Please bring a lunch because we are going to have a picnic at the shelter house.  
• Be sure to sunscreen and apply bug spray prior to drop off
• Don't forget water bottles
• We are planning to do Field Day type of events with Ms. Gabby's class.

These are our current sight words...
go, we, is, the, at, to, no, yes, I, a, look, can, for, in, see, you, it, up

Next week: due to the super busy week I did not get to cover and and like the way I wanted.  So, I will not be introducing new sight words, but we will continue to review.
