Letter Learning /J/
To write the uppercase letter /J/ start at the top go straight down, curve to the left. Jump back up to the top, just left of your first starting point, and draw a straight line that crosses the top.
To make the lowercase /j/ begin in the middle of your line, make a straight line down and curve to the left. Jump back up and make a small dot that sits above the /j/ but does not touch it.
Last Week:
In preparation for our Celebration of Learning, we have continued to discuss the people we love. We participated in a multi-day art project to showcase our family members who we love.
In Physical Education we have been learning how to juggle with scarves and magic sticks as well as practice our cup speed stacking.
Students explore the design, function, and properties of a variety of materials. Using big blocks in a safe and appropriate manner, they select and work with a variety of materials to build structures. They explore scientific and aesthetic concepts, using various small and large blocks, marble game designs, and stacking cups.
As a part of our letter review, students did a "Word Scavenger Hunt" looking for words that begin with each letter. Students looked in books, on signs and even on each other's backpacks to find their words! This is an activity you could do within your home, as you search for a familiar letter within print.
