Today we began our unit on apples and I introduced Johnny Appleseed to the children. They love his name and that he wore a pot on his head. We began illustrating our books on Johnny Appleseed and will continue working on them through next week. We are working on creating a list of words to describe apples. They used some great descriptive words today. We will continue adding to our list tomorrow. We are also going to be illustrating a book called "The Little Red House With A Star Inside". This will be one of their pocket chart stories during our literacy centers. They will also be solving name puzzles, stamping their names and our list of Star Words.
Please continue reading to your child every night. I am working on their reading binders and hope to send them home Wednesday for the first time. Please review them with your child daily. The binder will be compiled of poetry that they are familiar with and should be able to read to you or with you. You will also include the name of the book(s) you read with your child each night. This will become a very special part of your day when, hopefully, your child will share about our day at school and impress you with their reading. Make sure to point out the following Star Words when reading with your child.
