We had a fun week, full of learning.
In science we talked about the winter solstice and did a demonstration of the Earth and Sun during the winter solstice and summer solstice. We went to Discovery Theater to see the winter light show. We learned about the many different cultural celebrations that happen around the shortest day of the year.
In reading we studied the letters Q and U. We also looked at beginning blends, particularly s-blends. (St-, Sp-, Sk-, Sn-, etc.) In writing we tried to make sure that all of our words had the first and last sounds we heard.
In math we started working on addition. We have had a very good time playing the adding game Bump. We will keep going with adding next week as well.
Next week we have mass on Tuesday at 11. It is also an early dismissal Friday. If your child is going to aftercare, please let me know. Show and tell is a favorite Christmas book. Please make sure that your child knows the title and can tell us his/her favorite part. Library books are due on Monday as usual.
