Week of
September 6th—9th
This Week’s Happenings in Miss Butler’s Room!
Literacy:
Our focus letters this
week were Rr and Tt.
Students also counted
syllables in words and
worked on creating
rhyming word pairs.
Encourage your child to
find all of the R’s and
T’s in a book, magazine,
or newspaper. Also
have them think of all
the things around your
house that start with
a /t/ or /r/.
Mathematics:
The students reviewed
sorting and relative positions like over, under,
below, around, on, off,
etc. Coins were introduced starting with the
penny and we had such
fun making various color, shape, and sound
patterns.
Don’t forget
your snack
day!
