Special Delivery!

My special delivery is an update on our week all about mailmen! On Monday we made mail for each other and learned how to set up an envelope. They had fun keeping who they were making mail for a secret and slipping the letter in their mailboxes. On Tuesday we talked about different stamps and we made out own with watercolors.

 Call the US postal service, we have some new stamp designs!

On Thursday we took a break from learning about mailmen, and became them instead. They all made letters and played postal worker together.

 Work never stops in a mailroom

We are still going through the Old Testimony in Bible time. On Monday and Tuesday we read about Noah's ark.

On Thursday we read about the Tower of Babel. We were able to connect the this weeks of Bible time by expressing the importance of obeying God.

In phonics we rolling along with learning to read. We learned the "h" and "w" sound. This led to some new words we can sound out, hit and win. We also have two new sight words, mother and the. I sent these cards home so you can practice with them. 

In math we we are working on number recognition. We also started to work with knowing our rights and lefts. We have a few songs to help with this!

For our "extra" learning we worked with scissor cutting by cutting out a Noah's ark with animals. 

On Tuesday we also worked with how to call 9-1-1, and when it's important to. We all agreed that arguing with your sibling is NOT a good reason to call your cops, so don't worry!

Coming up...
