This month we will be focusing on Literacy. We will be working on an author study of Dr. Seuss. The children will demonstrate book awareness and knowledge of basic print conventions; They will understand that print carries meaning and spoken words are represented by text. We will also be starting a unit on construction and transportation. The children will be building with a variety of materials and making their own blueprints. This unit will focus on mathematics. The children will be using shapes to solve problems and explore the positions of objects in space.

 

 

Family Engagement: During our study of Dr. Seuss, we will be reading many of his most famous books. If your child has a Dr. Seuss story at home they would like to share with the class, they are welcome to bring it in any time.
