Week 7

On Monday, we learned the letter Ll. This week we are continuing to work our way through our alphabet sticker book! We switched small groups this week. In Miss Jay's group, she worked on fine motor skills through ripping paper and pulling up tape. In my group, I worked on fine motor skills through q tip painting. In Miss Kaia's group is working on taking turns and sharing! On Tuesday, we learned the letter Mm. On Wednesday, we learned the letter Nn. Each month, I do a letter assessment to see how they students are growing throughout the year. I started these on Wednesday! I am so proud of all of the progress I have seen the kiddos make! On Thursday, the kids got to spend the day with Mrs. Betsy while I was gone and they learned the letter Oo. On Friday, we had Fun Friday with P.E, where we played clean your room.
