This week in Pre-K we will be learning about hibernation and migration. It is going to be a very exciting week as we will be having a pajama day on Wednesday and Thursday. Please remember that when choosing pajamas to wear, that they need to be warm as we will be going outside for recess. If your child wants to wear a night gown of some sort, pants or leggings underneath work great! We will be hibernating as we watch a fun movie! We will also be learning about what kinds of animals hibernate and which animals migrate. The children love to learn "big words."
Our letter this week is Mm. Please remember to practice identifying the letter with your child. This week we are beginning to learn about numbers and will be focusing on numbers 1 and 2. To help the children learn how to write the numbers, we teach them rhymes that go with each number. Today in your child's folder, you will find a copy of these rhymes. While practicing numbers at home, please refer to the rhyme sheet. This will help your child learn and remember how to write each number.
