This week we thought we would take building in a new direction.  The students will build a robot and will learn to create their own robots.

This is a super cute story of Pete the Cat- Robo Pete by James Dean.  We will also read My Robot by Eve Bunting and clink by Kelly DiPucchio.  For art we will build a robot out of shapes, build our own robot out of cardboard boxes and cut and paste a robot back together.  Our letter this week is H.  It is a quiet sound that the students will learn to breathe hot air into the palm of their hand to make the H sound.  We will practice our names with playdoh and write the letter H with dry erase crayons.  Please practice the letters with your child at home  along with their sounds.

If anyone would like a copy of the playdoh mat with your child’s name on it let me know.  I am having them made is all upper case letters as well.  Using these is a super great way for students to build the letters of their name kinesthetically.  Send me an email or talk to me and I would be happy to have them made for you.
