Text Box: New Letters :
P, U, O, M
   Please review these letter names, letter signs and sounds, and objects that start with that sound.  Also please have your kindergartener practice writing these letters at home.  
New Numbers:
                 1, 2, 3
  Please review these numbers with your child.  They should recognize these numbers and be able to write them.
 
Text Box: Shapes:
  Your kindergartner should recognize a circle, square, triangle, diamond, oval, and rectangle.  We have been finding these shapes in our environment.  Ask them to find some for you!
Writing our name:
  Kindergartners have been working with Mrs. Mallard to learn how to write his/her name correctly.  Each child should be writing his/her name independently by this time of year.
 
Text Box: Colors:
  We use our crayons to listen and follow directions when completing our papers.  Color games are great to play at home.
Plant Parts:
  Can you name the parts of a plant?   We are learning about plant parts and how they help the plant as well as examining a real sunflower!
You are important to your child’s education.  Please review the above skills with him/her on a daily basis.
