We’ve been working hard during the month of December on reviewing numbers 1-20 with a focus on number 12. The number twelve seems to be tricky for most of the students because it doesn’t fall into the basic “teen” rule. “Numbers in the teens, they start with a one.” We used the classroom clock as a reference for numbers 1-12 and watched a fun, interactive video that put our lesson to music. Music is a great way to help children learn, young AND old. If you’d like to watch the video with your child, click on the photo below.
We’ve been focusing on the sight word you, this week, during our guided reading groups. We built the sight word on each page to complete the sentences, read the text to identify any unknown words using the basic reading strategies we’ve been learning this year, and reread the text to practice fluency.
Strengthening fine motor muscles in the hands is essential for successful writing. Coloring small pictures with a focus on moving your hands/fingers slowly to stay inside the lines helps improve hand strength and dexterity of children. An easy way to encourage fine motor development at home or just about anywhere!
