Word Wall Words
Starting next week the children will be introduced to four word wall words or I plan on calling them Heart Words this year. Each day we will practise the words
by chanting them in some manner. The children will be encouraged to find the word and take the word to assist in their writing. Each week the words will be posted for the parents so you can put them on flashcard and practise the words at home each evening.
Week of October 1-4 the words are: I like the a
Jolly Phonics
Every week the children will be introduced to a new jolly phonic sound. The children learn a little song to assist them with the sound, as well as an action and the sound. When children receive practise with these sounds at home then they grasp the sounds much quicker. I apologize because I forgot to send home the "t" page this week. Therefore, on Monday your child will receive the "t" and the "p" page. P is the sound for next week. In order to reinforce the idenification of the letter and the sound the children give me words with the sound and I write them on the chart. The STAR for the day gets to take the chart home. Also, in the morning message I use these words and the children have an opportunity to come and circle the particular sound and state the sound and letter. In this way the learning is reinforced in context for the children.
