K-4 Happening
Mrs. Hornsby’s Class
August 18-22

Each week the students will be introduced to a letter of the alphabet. We will begin with the letter “A”. We will move consecutively to the letter “Z”. The same procedure will apply to the numbers. We will work on shapes and colors as well.
This week our letter will be “A”, our number will be 1 and our shape will be the circle. The students will work on tracing as well as writing. The language activity will focus on Alvin Alligator. We will learn the rhyme that goes along with Alvin. The students will create letter rhyme books.
Our science activity will be exploring apples on a balance scale. The students will observe two apples and predict whether they weigh the same or not. Then we will weigh the results.
Art activities will include making fingerprint ants and tactile letter A’s. Our art will be sent home usually on Fridays.
I hope to make Friday’s special by letting the students create recipes with the letter of the week. I plan to let Friday be our show and tell day as well. Students may bring an item from home that begins with the letter A. Please allow them to share items each week pertaining to our letter of the week only. They are not required to participate every week. This will be by choice.

Have A Great Week!
