What a great first week back at school! The children seem to have grown over the holidays! They settled back into the routine easily and were eager to demonstrate that they retained their learning. We are finishing up our in-depth look at the alphabet and the letter sounds. We quacked for the letter Q and snoozed ("zzz") for Z. The lower case "q" is a tricky letter - sometimes the computer forgets to curl the tail and then it looks like a "g". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGAE81hD3lg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oC93kxBMcvE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQZl9fRCQbo Our new sight word is "go" but we also know "going" and "goes" because we have great eyes! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PaKQ9dVk1U We counted our 5 kittens in the sandbox and practiced making 5's too!
