K-4 Happenings
Mrs. Hornsby
October 20-24

This week the students will be introduced to the letter Dd. We will begin our week making our tactile letter Dd using dog stickers. We will discuss different types of dogs and the students will share stories about their own dog, or a dog they know. We will list as many Dd words as the students can name on the board. The class will learn a rhyme using the letter as I introduce them to Devon Dog.
Our number for the week will be “8”, our shape will be the diamond and our color will be brown. We will create brown paper plate shakers for our art activity.
Our math activities will include matching dots on dominos and exploring dice. We will also make kites using the diamond shape.
On Friday we will continue with “show and tell” and the students will sample a delightful dip using apple slices and strawberries!
