Planes, Trains and Automobiles: A Week of Transportation

Greetings Pre-K Families,

This week in Pre-K we are talking about Transportation and the definition of that big word.  We are learning that there are many forms of transportation and that they can be categorized!  We will play a Transportation Bingo game and talk about how different modes of transportation can be use in the air, in the water and on the land.  Our letter this week is "Uu."  This is our last letter of the year, however we will continue to practice letter names and letter sounds.  Please keep working on letters/sounds at home, as we will begin testing them next week!  

On Wednesday and Thursday of this week, we will go on a field trip to the Taylor County Highway Department.  There, we will learn about all of the big machines that help take care of and repair our roads.  Be sure to ask your child about the L-O-U-D horn.  :)  Here are our group pictures from the field trip!

Here is our Monday/Wednesday group!

Here is our Tuesday/Thursday group!
