Off and Running

We are off and running into 2012!! The children came back all excited and ready to learn. The children know letters and letter sounds. We are now focused on handwriting and forming our letters correctly when we write. We are working hard on learning our sight words. Play games at home with the sight words. Children need to be expose to sight words over and over to learn them. I have several parent links on my blog that have game activities to help learn sight words. If you click on the "Live Binder" on the right hand side of the blog you will pull up sight words. We have been learning about addition and we will start subtraction soon. We are counting daily in the classroom to 100. Your child is learning to count by 2's, 5's and 10's. Practice these in the car while you are driving. We have a lot more to learn before the end of kindergarten.
