This week in Reading, we read the story “Miss Bindergarten Takes a Field Trip with Kindergarten” and discussed how people in a community cooperate. We have finished the entire alphabet and continued working with syllables, rhyming and blending and started work with classifying and categorizing.  In Math, we mastered our position words: inside, outside, above, below, and on and started working with our left and right.
 
Next week, we will begin reading the story “Smash! Crash!” and discuss friendship.  In Math, we will continue working with our left and right and will start working on geometry skills: making shapes from other shapes, comparing solid figures, and building with solid figures.
