Fire station field trip!

We had a great time on our field trip to the fire station!!!  We learned about the ABC's of fire safety, we saw the fire fighters' gear and got to see what it feels like,  and we had a tour of the station!  Thank you to the Gorham Fire Station for having us!  We LOVED it!!!

Writing news

We've been working hard on our writing!  Every week we are coming up with ideas and then we draw and label a picture that tells our story.  We are slowly starting to write word wall words in our sentences and we are even starting to "stretch out" some words by writing the sounds we hear!  I love reading their stories and I am very impressed with the progress I have seen already!!









Practicing our word wall words:)

Reading fun!

We read the book Fix it Duck this week and learned about the setting of a story.  We had fun making the duck character too!  Ask your child a little about the story and if he ever really fixed anything!  We continued to practice our word wall words (I, am) this week as well as the letters Ff, Gg, Hh, Ii, Jj, Kk.  Each child now has a book bin that we keep in the classroom.  This is a place where they keep books that they are learning to read.  We are working on being careful readers and pointing to each word as we read it.   When they practice reading at home, help them remember to point to the words as they read!
