This week we started Heggerty and week 1 of Fundations. The students are doing well managing these two new academic programs. With Heggerty we are playing a lot of verbal word games- rhyming, onset and rime, isolating first sounds, isolating last sounds, segmenting and combining compound words, adding parts of words, deleting parts of words and changing parts of words. We are also going over letters and sounds and sentence dictation, counting how many words are in each sentence and what talking about what punctuation would be at the end of the sentence.
We have been working on reading our emergent readers. We are finding our first set of sight words in these readers. We are also noticing how many words are in each sentence and what kind of punctuation is at the end of the sentences. We started two new books, the 5 Little Pumpkins and the Body book. We have been practicing letters t, b & f and we are almost done with our weather charts. We are continuing with practicing our counting and number writing and building our sight words with letter magnets. With all the rain on Wednesday we opened our discovery centers and extended our recess time so the students had time to PLAY in kindergarten.
