The Mailman

Every Thursday we do an activity called Letter Mailbox.  I tell the children that the mailman comes and delivers new letters for us learn.  He puts the letter in our mailbox with items that begin with the same letter sound.  Today, the mailman brought us the letter T.  I gave the children clues about what things the mailman brought us that start with the letter T or /t/ sound.  The children had a lot of fun guessing the items (tomato, tiger, teeth, towel, turtle and turkey).  They also learned sign language for letter T and turtle.  So far we have learned S is for socks, M is for mouse, D is for duck and P is for pig!
Be sure to check out the news for next week.  We will continue to work on colors and shapes.   See if your child can identify different shapes and colors at home and outside!
On another note, I have not yet received the snack menu for October so the snacks are listed as ? on this week’s newsletter.
