Intro to Curriculum

I am very excited to be starting a new curriculum with the children this week.  We will be focusing on a letter each week so the children can begin to learn the alphabet.   Each week, we will learn what the upper and lower case letter looks like, what sound it makes and some common words that start with that letter.  Each week, we will also be doing art activities, reading stories, and do games and manipulatives that will help reinforce the letter. 

We will also do “Show and Share” each Thursday and I am asking that each child brings in a book or toy that starts with the letter of the week.  Even though numbers, colors and shapes are not listed on the chart below, we will be learning about these items also throughout the year.
