Calendar 

Each month, our calendar has a pattern. We read a poem today and it helped us figure out the pattern! The colors go red, green, yellow, brown. The directions go up, to the right, down, and to the left.

Patterns

We are learning about patterns this week. Yesterday we used pats, claps, and snaps to make patterns. Today we used kids! We made AB, AAB, and ABB patterns with boys and girls. 

Second Steps Social Skills

Our social skills curriculum is called Second Steps. We have learned how to be a listener and a learner and are now working on understanding and managing our feelings. Today we listened to a story about this girl, Samarah. She had a tummy ache, was breathing fast, and her heart was beating fast because her grandpa was sick. We learned that our bodies give us signals that tell us how we are feeling. Samarah's body told her that she was upset and worried. This is important for all kids to know how to do. Help your child identify their emotions based on the clues their bodies give them.
