Week in Review:
Sneak Preview
This week our letters were L and U. We are really moving along in our letter studies! We also learned all about the four seasons. We wrote what season we like best to make into a class book and did many of center activities focused on seasons. We sorted clothes by seasons, complete two piece leaf puzzles, used leaves to fill tens frames to match a number and so much more. We loved making leaf pictures, trying a wind experiment, and exploring real fall items
