Dear Prek Parents,
Reminders:
-Every Tuesday Homework is send home.
Homework should be back to school on Thursday. Please don’t forget to send the
folder back
-On Tuesday the homework we will send with
a bag in which you will have to bring something to school that begins with the
letter of the week. This is to help us with our letter of the week manipulative
center.
-Please make sure your child is only
bringing toys of the letter of the week we are studying. We have been receiving
children with toys that do not belong to the letter.
This week we will continue learning
about our abc. We will be working on recognizing the letters with their sound,
letter formation, vocabulary of the letter, remember always emphasizing on the
short vowel sounds. This week we will be studying about the letter Jj. The vocabulary for this letter is: jungle, juice, jar,
jellybeans, jean, jump, jellyfish, jug, jacket, jet, jaguar, joey.
Two children will be assigned each
week with each letter. In this case, the children assigned should take at least five (5) items that they have at home
that begin with this letter. Items should be at school on Monday and we
will send them back on Friday. For this week we have Valentina (Prek”A”) and Wady
(Prek”B”)
***Note: On Friday, the assigned students, will
have to share for 22 friends eatable things such as jellybeans, jell-o,
juice, jam, letter Jj cookies, etc. for children to taste. We do this to close
our letter unit. Thank you for your support!!
The following link you will find a
PowerPoint presentation with the vocabulary, in case you would like to review
at home with your child.
We are attaching links of some of Letter Jj videos if you would like to
listen and sing at home with your kid:

Some of the stories we will be reading
this week are:

and the Beanstalk by Steven Kellogg Join
young Jack as he climbs a giant beanstalk to a magic castle in the clouds. Meet
a hen that lays golden eggs and a harp that sings by itself. And don't forget
the ogre. A classic fairy tale with a vigorous look that will leave you
chanting "Fee-fi-fo-fum!
Jamberry

boy and a bear looking all kinds of berries for jam in silly, rhyming style.
And the words seems to just roll off your tongue…and the tongues of your kids
