October 2014 Newsletter
Dear Parents,
Happy Fall! We hope you are enjoying the cooler weather. We had a great September and the children are quickly getting adjusted to the class environment. They have been busy with many new and exciting class projects, exercises and new subject matter.
In October, we will explore different learning themes including: the four seasons, parts of a leaf, the human body, and life cycle of a pumpkin. Your child will share these class projects with you every week.
In Language Arts, the children will work on conversation cards, nomenclature, object and picture matching, letter sounds and oral word building. In Mathematics, the children will explore numbers through concrete objects such as number rods, the spindle box, short bead stair, numerals and counters, and the addition & subtraction strip board. They will definitely have a lot to do!
In Sensorial activities, the children will use the rectangular prisms, pink tower, binomial cube, and geometric solids. Geometric solids will expose children to the different shapes, lengths, weights and sizes of objects.
In Geography, the children will learn about continents and various landforms. In Science, the children will learn about parts of a leaf, why leaves change colors in the fall, and different types and shapes of leaves. The children will also learn about the major organs of the human body, such as the brain, heart, and lungs and lastly the lifecycle of a pumpkin starting from a seed to a fully developed fruit.
In Practical life, the children will continue to learn to develop fine motor skills, such as the development of the wrist, fingers, and hand-eye coordination. These skills will be developed through class room exercises and projects requiring the use of grasping, scooping, dry and wet pouring, squeezing, using a spoon, etc. The children will also learn practical life skills about dressing themselves including zipping, buttoning, snapping, and tying.
We look forward to the exciting month ahead, full of new activities, changing weather, and falling leaves! Please contact us if you have any questions/concerns.
Reminders:
Sincerely,
Yasmin Mumtaz
