Peewee Penguin and the letter Pp!

We turned the letter P into Peewee Penguin today! Peewee Penguin had a mystery P bag in our room! We found lots of P things in it - pennies, a purse, Peter Pan, Pooh Bear, pink paper, a pencil, a pen, a pine cone, and popcorn.  Our lips were popping all day! If you want that popping feeling say the /p/ words in this video:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rl_D_N1Tsic Here is a fun penguin action song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=He5Xu11HBkM&list=RDHe5Xu11HBkM

Francy Fish and the letter Ff

We had a great week learning about the letter Ff. The Zoophonics animal to go along with the letter is Francy Fish. We found lots of words that begin with the letter Ff. Some are body parts: feet, fingers, fist. We read lots of stories about animals that begin with the letter f (frogs, fish, foxes). Listen to the Storybots and see what /f/ words they found:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8e_Oh314Ds  Sesame Street has a funny Letter f video too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-mEmCuU95c Remember to keep practice printing the letter too!         

Frog Fun!

Patterns

We have been doing lots of patterns at school. We will continue to pattern with actions, sounds and materials. Try using some real-life materials at home to make some patterns (utensils, buttons, coins, fruit loops, etc.)

Down By the Bay (Rhyming)

The children have enjoyed the song "Down By the Bay"! Here are links to a few versions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CSxGHve60E  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uE6xzCI-TwE  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=minE4F4t5t8  After you listen to the song together, encourage your child to come up with some more rhyming words and sing the song with these new rhymes! Be sure to keep it fun but the more practice they get with rhyme the better!

Missy Mouse and the Letter M

We are already learning letters in kindergarten! For the past few days we have been doing lots of activities with the letter Mm. We looked in Missy's box of goodies and found lots of things that begin with the /m/ sound. See if your child can tell you some words that begin with the /m/ sound! Today they looked marvelous with their mustaches on! We have also been listening to many great stories. One of their favorites is "There Was An Old Monster". They can listen to it at home by following this link:http://www.scholastic.com/browse/media.jsp?id=1332Keep practicing the letter Mm at home! Find things around the house that begin with Missy's sound and practice making the letter (on paper, in flour or cornmeal, with playdoh, etc.) Have fun!
