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.
