Ww Week

This week we learned the letter Ww for walrus and watermelon. The kids took time to review all the letters just as we normally do and also review our sign language, adding the letter Ww. Addy says Ww is the easiest to do - holding up three fingers. Addy brought a wolf, Reese brought Woody, Same brought a whale and walrus, Trevor brought wild berry water and Max wore a Woody shirt along with bringing a Woody doll also. We sang a couple of songs..."Whistle While You Work" and "Where Oh Where Has My Little Dog Gone." We did our Pledge also and headed in to make our cute little blue whales to take home and colored our weekly pictures for our folders. Next week we will learn the letter Xx so bring anything that starts with Xx! See you then!

Vv Week and Birthday Week

Yesterday was Brenda's birthday so we celebrated her and Max's birthday today at circle time. We also learned the letter Vv for vulture and vaccuum. We learned to sign the letter Vv and shared what we brought. Reese and Same brought valentines, Addy brought vampire teeth, Max brought a vest and we read a book - "Clifford's First Valentine." The kids reviewed all the letters with me and we did the Pledge as always. Then we sang Happy Birthday to Brenda and to Max and let Max open his gifts. Brenda would also like to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for all the wonderful gifts. Next week we will be learning the letter Ww so bring things that start with Ww!! See you then!

Uu Week

We learned the letter Uu this week for unicorn, upside down and umbrella. We also learned to sign the letter Uu (like holding up two fingers together). The kids reviewed the letters with me and reviewed sign language for all the letters as well. Trevor and Addy brought umbrellas to share, Karson brought the movie Up to watch later and Sam brought a cool puzzle that had a Uu piece with a picture of an umbrella on it. The kids colored their weekly pictures for their folders and we also made umbrellas with lots of spring stickers on them. Next week is the letter Vv so bring things that start with Vv!! Have a great week!
PS Next week we will also be celebrating Brenda's birthday on Wednesday!! (Her actual birthday is the 15th).

Tt Week

This week we learned the letter Tt for teddy bear and turtle. We also learned to sign the letter Tt and reviewed all our letters we have learned so far. Trevor brought himself and some trucks to share. Sam brought a movie with tigers in it, Max brought a turtle and Karson brought a telephone for the letter Tt. All great ideas. We let the kids watch Sam's movie to see the tigers and we sang "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" for Tt. The kids also colored their Tt for their folders and we made some very cute little turtles. Next week is Uu week so bring those Uu things!!!
