Dr. Seuss & Rhyming

This week our theme was “Dr. Seuss & Rhyming”.  We continued to work with rhyming words as we read some Dr. Seuss books.  The children made the Cat in the Hat, painted a One-Fish Two-Fish bowl, made the Cat in the Hat hats and played a variety of rhyming games.  Our letter for the week was Rr and we reviewed the number 4.  If your child continues to struggle with the concept of rhyming please continue to practice this skill at home, let them hear those rhyming words as often as possible!


Next week our theme will be the “Zoo”.  We will be learning about a variety of zoo animals and the children will be making a giraffe, monkey, tiger and a zebra.  The children will also create a classroom book about what animals they might see at the zoo.  We will work on putting the numbers 1-10 in order and will use our sense of hearing to play an animal sounds game.  Our letter for the week will be Zz and we will review the number 5.
